Song for a Small Guest Alan Kurdî (2013-2015) Seaweed followed the law. It released you to waves bussing your small body down, down dark currents, silver minnow tunnel. Your red shirt swallowed the Aegean, billowed and swelled, but your shoes stayed on. By them the sea knew your refuge dream, restored you to shore so your father Abdullah could find you, a guest of the sea. Without guests all houses would be a grave, the poet wrote making a worm from mist, a bird from sand. What prayer transforms this empty castle guards watch, ignorant of the gift to shelter each other? Who will help close, open, close your velcro laces for the journey your father dares for your sake? You, a gift loved with milk cake and honey. You, names altered to keep you safe—not Mohammed, Jesus. Not Muslim, Christian. Hush don’t bother now as white tourists gather multiplying your image on their little screens to console each other. You are not their orphan of beach foam, Alan flag bearer watching from the lap of God.
