Eschew: God Bless You
Eschew: God Bless You Brother tells me I’m going to hell
For baby-birding the Eucharist
To my three-year-old niece
Because while riding shotgun on my hip
She held a hand out
In curiosity
Never mind me taking a sacrament
When I forsook that part of me
I give my grandmother’s eulogy
I am already in hell
