Passion Eddy  

Book two of impromptu trilogy.

  Our Love


A wallpaper spread in reasonable patterns
into and through the artisan's modest sequences.

Its discovery, and my interest in its discernment,
endured long before I was equipped or anxious to consider.

I let the small things be alone with their detail;
recent details from scattered newsprint spread
      adjunctly
while rain streaked the every broadening window
of our distraction.  Our love was untiring on top of us

with its assembly, celestial design, and genitalia;
hence, the nest sullied by passion—we distinguished

no shelter as it swirled behind us, pushing, prodding,
staggering ahead at a time when our munificence sometimes
      chose to diminish.
