knowing that it's almost time to leave should make it seem beautiful. but even as the final this and the final that slip by without excitement. ten years in one place is a hole i'm about to escape.

Good to be back.
The birds are still here,
but the zing is gone.
Where does the zing go, between homes?

Once you leave, it's not there anymore.
You have to make a new one.

me? oh, home? well, home is where you can be yourself. i think you take a sense of home wherever you go.
but, home as a place, like robin_hill, is pure magic. only the people who live here know what i'm talking about.

I hated it at first, the strange rooms, different walls and carpet, unfamiliar light and noises.
But I made it home. I made it my space, and I have come to love the light sifted through the giant tree outside the window. I looked forward to a day to my self, to spend in my little unit.
And now I'm leaving, so soon. Back to the place that was once home and now no longer is. Dismantling this home so carefully constructed.
Where will my next home be?

'ome is where the 'art is.
To true.
I look forward to being there.
People - there hearts and souls - that I know.
For a while I didnt have that - its terrifying.
I had an accident - a long while ago - a bad one - major injuries - two weeks in hospital - morphine - but thats a different story.
They discharged me - I sat on seat outside the hospital - I didnt know where to go. I cried buckets, and, laughed hysterically. Terrifying.
They discharged

i need to sit at the dining room table and do puzzles with my mother. i do word searches. she does sudoku. and we sit at the table and talk while we do our puzzles like old ladies.
i need my mother. her hugs. no one here hugs me. not well anyways. in almost two weeks. i'll lay in bed, cuddle, and watch tv with my mom. it will be the best vacation i've had in years.

this one emerges slowly
from the things around me
every now and then I feel it
from the nightmare stress of moving day
not to be thought of
to, week by week,
gathering furniture that feels right
the rooms take shape
the moods and patterns
and I begin to see how to live here
what it means to live with you
there is still more to come
and this won't be home forever
but I think I'm going to like it
yes, I think this one is going to be good

epitome of incomprehensibility
|
Well, here I am, back from my big trip of the year to exotic Ontario.
I'm still feeling an emotional jet lag. Not real jet lag. Dorval and the little towns around Kingston are in the same time zone, and I didn't take a jet. But I feel that I was respected there as being talented, whether that was true or not, and with my immediate family I'm regarded as somewhat of a failure.
But let's be real. I deserve to be called lazy sometimes. In fact I spent two hours today playing a silly math-puzzle game based on exponents of two (called 2048, if you're tempted).
I do have a certain nostalgia for exponents of two. I memorized them up to 65536 back in elementary school, being a wannabe nerd.
I guess I've momentarily satisfied my longing for different places, but not for different experiences. I'm not asking the universe for another Italy trip. Mainly I want an interesting job that doesn't just involve minimum-wage computer tutoring.

the last guy he tried to sell the place to with us still living in it made a face like he smelled something awful and said, "it's really not a nice house. i mean, my wife would never go for this kitchen. i don't think anyone would want to live here. it's dated and too small. sorry. i guess it works for you guys."
yeah, it's old and creaky and fucked_up. the same way we're all going to be someday. i know it might not look like much to you. but it's everything to me.
