Distant

As I witness the walk in, though do not respond in anger nor anger simply sigh at the invasive stupidity. The idea that even if you blocked or suggested they take several steps back their already on moronisity , battering ram march. I begin to think of how things go in my family , someone succumbs to the curse and then we all hate Christmas time or around then.

I wondered on the parting night, was I crying for her..or HER, I may never know, maybe it was for myself. Grandfather I here in the big MacArthur had a Japanese extra marital material perhaps a lover, somewhere out there the family strain hold Asian bloodline. I realize that we, my distant cousins must stop meeting like this, meeting at these funeral parlours on the only occasions we actually do so…and they are the closest of those who seem so far away…
Everything seems so distant be it by displacement, death and when it isn't it ends up too close...
