The journey’s end and returning to the start aduly child, visit to the parent of past the mother, the future dependent every mile, regressing a voyage of repression.
A doo opens to reawaken memories in nostalgia sodden air odours of childhoo, reminders of youth and what’s best for you love.
The greeting as always warm a kiss, the subtle jibe hidden in sibling praise and the lengthy health report.
Old rituals are repeated Mass attended, for her sake no mention of lover, he would be, turned in his grave.
Nerves getting rawer tongue tender from biting Not too soon, time to leave, guilt whispering, the travel companion.
