Consider your brother: he is dressed
as a Judas effigy. When the waitress takes your order,
your brother will ask for a beer.
You will pour your thirty pieces of silver
onto the table and ask, What can I get for this?

SISYPHUS AND MY BROTHER
The phone rings—my brother was arrested again.
Dad hangs up, gets his old blue Chevy going, and heads to the police station.
It’s not the first time. It’s not even the second.
No one is surprised my brother was arrested again.
The guy fell on my knife, was his one-phone-call explanation.
(He stabbed a man five times in the back is the official accusation.)
My brother is arrested again and again. And again
our dad, our Sisyphus, pushes his old blue heart up to the station.
