In Which I Re-name My Father
if he is an untelevised acceptance speech
sucked back air
if he is the perfect number of inches between sidewalk and tailored coat
the knowledge of those inches
if he is the shape not even deigning to be ghostly
no sound (not a creaked stair or anything)
the hope at the lip
of an empty bowl
if he is refused memory
a hand on my head back anywhere
the redacted button beneath the collar of a dress shirt
the excess fabric in the lining of a pocket
the hole
then i am the singing that almost wakes him, i am
the bird starving in his throat
