(errant)
-my brother’s singing voice
after whitening
the teeth
of the adult
orphan
you might have seen
on the shoulders
of a tired usher
a deep sea diver
swims solo
in a private lake
-my mother’s singing voice
a donated pillowcase
made into seven washrags
one for each
church window
-my father’s singing voice
an abandoned dog
on a weekday
shops its grief
from homeless man
to homeless
woman
under threat
of lightning
where else
