being back

The first few days back, I was still mostly in Australia: my tan, my tank tops, my time. I was glad to be back; the homecoming was so exciting that it was still all part of the trip. But now, I am unpacked. Laundry is done. Posters are on the wall. I am most definitely not in Australia, but why does it feel like I'm not really here either? My hours are later than ever, my antisocialness more extreme, my joblessness more desperate. I am floating in that calm ocean again, with no shore in sight. Lost while knowing exactly where I am. In a crowded room alone. I am making no impression again, and the one I left behind has perhaps worn away. I miss being in Australia. I miss what being in Australia says about me.
