mother and i toured
the dana house
built by frank lloyd wright in springfield, illinois
commissioned by a woman who
dabbled in the occult
believed
in reincarnation
the dining room’s

trace you
in all stages of existence

egg
caterpillar
chrysalis
full-flighted fruition
at ten a.m., when southeastern sun shines
it bears you on each beam – gives birth to you on each surface
transcendent
you alight on
