—after Edgar Allan Poe’s quote, “There is an eloquence in true enthusiasm.”
 
 
 
                        Apparent language disguises corporeal functionality.
 
            Tongue gauges
voluminous indentations, spatial excitement of flame and
 
undisturbed frequency of elongated wishings.

—after Tom Harrell’s Daily News
 
 
 
Excavated prose the folded nuances obscure.
 
Indemnified within informative devices.
 
Silent reader of reflectional selves
fondler of hearsay’s naked intuition.
 
Awakened
across forehead of novel postulations, of aged
willing does
the sectioned hope of accurate depictions reveal
with woven dialects’ patterned
congratulations.

            Deserved truncation
this
                        remorseful fabrication of voiced interrelation.  Thankfulness
                                                            embodies

            distance of
here
                        and the body’s here rendition of
 
touch embellished, reciprocation.
