Tell them not to go
to the banks alone.
Tell them where
they can drink
without watching
over shoulders.
Tell them drowning
is third on your list
of concerns.
First is lie down,
second, come here.
Even the water
I was baptized in
isn’t safe.
I knew God
was a man
because he put
a baby in Mary
without her
permission.}
