Gesture Theory: A Villanelle
by Desmond Kon Zhicheng-Mingdé
The script of leaving the wine to chill
The script of adding rosemary
The script of simmering baby turnips
The script of echoes in Annapurna
The script of grasped palms
The script of Walter Benjamin in Portbou
The script of this windward side
The script of sardines in a knapsack
The script of dance like a circling
The script of naked shadows
The script of an oath
The script of wet soil against skin
The script of fountain pen poems
The script of wrapping the glass
The script of breathing in the morning
The script of reading Thoreau’s truism
The script of hiding the luggage key
The script of blind love
The script of the dog-eared page
