ECHO 4/2/06

A mature woman’s aversion to ‘things’;
Feeling removed from the world due to symptoms of a heavy cold - lethargy and barriers and the inability to speak, which in turn causes familial strife;
Knowing that my parents are leaving the country and returning home soon brings back latent feelings of abandon and singularity;
The word ‘failure’ etches itself into the past 24 hours;
Cars become places of serious discussion.
