Who cleans the bodies of the homelessA Poem by A. F. CarreraWho scrapes the smears off the sidewalk When someone reaches for the flowers on the roof Who polishes the spikes under the interstate When someone sleeps where she's not supposed to sleep Who trawls turgid brown bodies from the lake When people turn up missing but not missed Who sends the call that there's a body in the city When another homeless comes home
