Passion Eddy  

Book two of impromptu trilogy.

  Providence


You were fortunate to distribute aspects of your life
in a binary exchange.  It was urban.  It was high-rise

and generally corporate.  Yet who knew what this meant
or where it would finally lead—the shipped product

was scintillating; the commercial options were
unusually attractive and effectual above this landscape

and its perpetual fog humming a brave, progressive
arpeggio.  The sea licked the wharved shores with avarice.

Fishing boats bobbed in friendly ways somewhat opposite
the opposite hills and the land-filled flats—and, very high

above, in splendor, you walked among an assemblage
of sofas, lamps, and chairs most deftly, admiring the sea
      and its influential presence.
