Homecoming by Maxine Kumin Having come unto the tall house of our habit where it settles rump downward on its stone foundations in the manner of a homely brood mare who throws good colts and having entered where sunlight is pasted on the windows ozone rises from the mullions dust motes pollinate the hallway and spiders remembering a golden age sit one in each drain we will hang up our clothes and our vegetables we will decorate the rafters with mushrooms on our hearth we will burn splits of silver popple we will stand up to our knees in their flicker the soup kettle will clang five notes of pleasure and love will take up quarters.
