Jess returned home under a five-grey sky
with no one waiting stoic with open
arms, and a car with windows up for dry
conversation. More returning women
walked by and past, and one offered a ride
driven by an older sister parked in
slanted sideways. Never acting the shy
ones, all three merged, bettered war-roads driven.
Once through the door the veiled hat flopped downside
on the floor. She stood still, but the sent cue
of future to face pushed breath into guides
of never, no more; hugged pictures that flew
into walls and fell. On a page inside
written was, "We regret to inform you"
