Rescue.
Amulet.
Love sonnet to letters.
One, bury your hands.
Two, speak only in soft syllables.
Three, wash your diction outside of gravity.
Four, recognize yourself in foliage.
Five, dream only of vowels.
Six, learn to incinerate certain sentences.
Seven, resuscitate towels, cradles, darkness.
Eight, do not retrace the lines of departed escorts.
Nine, gather your body and other fallen forms.
Ten, in solitude, repeat the unsaid.
Eleven, channel, stream, void, break.
Twelve, and then all at once the empty house frightened me.
Thirteen, first sign of--
Fourteen, solace, and how to move signatures,
and how to inscribe silences.
