ABSTRACT
Poetic thinking is engaged and enacted to explore the space of poetic dwelling as ‘home’, built out of the imagination, a ‘house church’ of poesis. Themes of home and of writing into and out of the depths, concerns of all the ‘poet companions’ – Hélène Cixous, Yves Bonnefoy, Ignatius of Loyola, Dennis Potter, Gaston Bachelard - are brought together through engagement of common themes in the writing of Potter, Cixous, and Bonnefoy to illuminate the textual spaces that invite us into a home that can be called the space of believing as a poet.
