Home, thought Odysseus, is just another stop
on this rolling sea of terrors. Worse than just another stop: 
home, relentlessly identical, grinds hope to a dust
that drifts over state lines. For every city I wander through, 
pastel or gray, and each island adorned with orchards,
the filthy bays dotted with boats, seems charged 
with its own death-like energy, a current nearly dead 
in the walls and bark, but present, and sustained so
that no one discerns it, like locust eggs enduring the years.
When the muse eludes us she arrives just here,
dormant in the hollow cells. Calls won't rouse her, 
nor will entreaties, false in their elegance, distract her 
from her covenant with death. In death-like spaces 
she accommodates us, but only in silence, her hand steady 
as she pours our tea. Home, thought Odysseus, 
is the crate of spices carried dry over the sea, the jars 
of undiluted oil. A trick of wood, an uncanny ship: 
a displacement of water, home. An annoying knot falls open 
at last, and a hulk slips from its moorage, 
receding over the lacquered sea.
