Read this original poetry excerpt from Volta Without Rescue. Context: The poem is a sonnet whose volta begins with Yet, but the final couplet resists full resolution. 1. The town had counted smoke until it knew 2. which chimney meant a birth, which meant a wake; 3. each roof performed the old communal cue, 4. each door kept flour ready for a cake. 5. Yet when no smoke rose from the doctor's place, 6. we learned how absence gathers its own face. 7. No couplet closed the window on that lack; 8. it only turned our looking back and back.
