Abstract
With this note, I am sending you a poem. It is titled “how to disinherit loneliness in another country”. It is about a 'home going'. It interrogates the difficulties of returning home to the ancestral lands, once the body is colonised. In this piece, I am coming to terms with my own issues of returning home to nothing but death and graves. I am writing that fear away. I am making amends. I am reaching out to the ancestors and telling them my reasons for not visiting. I am seeking answers.
