Brother

Where have you been brother? Our mother.
It’s our mother.
And beyond that
I’m scared to tell you
I’m scared.
Because I am here alone now.
Because at least before
it was we.
Now I’ve had to find a way
and let him have his way.
I’ll have to share this child
because you gave me
no other way.
I can’t even tell you
not just scared, but you’ve left me
alone
illegal
alone.
