Family Reunion

There's nothing wrong with staying here in Henderson,
Among the dead. I got a lovely meal last night.
I chafe a bit at being stuck inside all day, repeating
Moments of a state I'd meant to leave, and felt
I had, until this week, but being sucked, so briefly
Light, back into darkness doesn't hurt, exactly.
I'm okay, I guess. It's just that I had hoped to
Keep my distance from these dead.
