"let it go, this is home" i say
to myself and pull on my hood.
reassurances worth a dragon's hoard,
just to know in the night i'm not alone.
i think about that creaky house, its empty rooms
that now are dust, ashes that the earth reclaimed.
litigations over contracts made in good faith,
and what was ruined? the very thing we tried to save.
they were so close in age and proximity,
a shared last name and ancestry,
but otherwise just a comedy,
poking fun at the idea of family.
dig, dig it up, exhume.
swallow, throw it up, resume.
