The Long Deployment by Jehanne Dubrow

For weeks, I breathe his body in the sheet
     and pillow. I lift a blanket to my face.
There’s bitter incense paired with something sweet, 
     like sandalwood left sitting in the heat	
or cardamom rubbed on a piece of lace.

     For weeks I breathe his body.  In the sheet
I smell anise, the musk that we secrete
     with longing, leather and moss. I find a trace  
of bitter incense paired with something sweet.

     Am I imagining the wet scent of peat	
and cedar, oud, impossible to erase?
     For weeks, I breathe his body in the sheet—
crushed pepper—although perhaps discreet,
     difficult for someone else to place.

There’s bitter incense paired with something sweet. 
     With each deployment I become an aesthete
of smoke and oak. Patchouli fills the space
     for weeks. I breathe his body in the sheet	
until he starts to fade, made incomplete,
     a bottle almost empty in its case.

There’s bitter incense paired with something sweet. 
     And then he’s gone. Not even the conceit
of him remains, not the resinous base.	
     For weeks, I breathed his body in the sheet.	
He was bitter incense paired with something sweet.  

     With each deployment I become an aesthete

There’s bitter incense paired with something sweet. 
     And then he’s gone. Not even the conceit
of him remains, not the resinous base.	
     For weeks, I breathed his body in the sheet.	
He was bitter incense paired with something sweet.
