my mother sings me to sleep and i wakeclinging to the wet wall of her drunken tears
i miss your father i miss you
leaning in close
the alcohol on her breath ushers me into dreams where sheep
count the empty bottles of Baileys in the bathtub
while a talking fox sitting cross-legged on the toilet tells me about puberty
