Tweet Street

It is the other
in your brother
that makes the ‘hood interesting.

Spices from the window,
music in the air,
all the names of God in dialects.

What the missing fathers miss
we are to fill in,
whole hearts hold attention.

Walk a mile,
search door to door.
Orphans, of all ages,
want you home.
