Ingredients:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. One accommodation, occupied solely by yourself<\/li>\n
  2. A scattering of well-meaning friends, popped up from nowhere<\/li>\n
  3. One long distance relationship<\/li>\n
  4. One far-away family<\/li>\n
  5. A mixed bag of acceptance, fear, pride and loneliness<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Method:<\/p>\n

    1.Take the accommodation and stuff well with largely useless items<\/p>\n

    Bought in the mistaken belief<\/p>\n

    They might offer some relief.<\/p>\n

    2. Discard the scattering of well-meaning friends<\/p>\n

    Since you are quite used to making this alone without<\/p>\n

    Any flavour any of them lends.<\/p>\n

    3. Add a long distance relationship,<\/p>\n

    Brought swiftly to the boil by the impending apocalypse.<\/p>\n

    4. Take your far-away family and place them<\/p>\n

    At a safe distance beyond a border;<\/p>\n

    Check on them often for signs of blanching or over-heating<\/p>\n

    Which may prevent any future meeting.<\/p>\n

    5. Take your mixture of acceptance, fear and loneliness and steam slowly<\/p>\n

    Over some simmering resentment.<\/p>\n
