i.

angel with a pail of milk
many of you, huddled
grasping shoulders

ii.

rubber band reprimand:
two large hands come down from the sky
and wring you like a washcloth

iii.

laundry’s been sorted
yes, god’s work is sordid

  1. Loving the composition of following “sorted” with “sordid”. It sticks in your mind in a good way.
