to be home again
in small ways and large
can home be returned to after
childhood gone and parental demise
is that home or
is it a illusion, a detention center
of ones youth, the place that one spends
ones life recovering from, the trenches
is one forever
to return to a past.
that long ago is gone
forever looking backward
as though it is
a cup of tea well drank
and all is left but tea leaves
that one would study and divine
and in them find the answer
of what did happen in that home
amongst that past, is it the future we divine
or is that past that we wish to exorcise and replace
what answer will be found
in black teas leaves from faraway land
what answer will be found
in past long ago times
may be what is a home and where is it.
