returning home feels the same way pulling rice from your knees does,
there is sea glass hidden under the floorboards beside scattered change and loose tobacco; sand dusting every surface you could feel,
gritty and excessive.
You reclaim coming home because it feels like strong coffee,
strong liquor
there is a shipwreck in your belly, it drags anyone who dares dwell into its depths.
