Package Arrived

My brother arrived in Texas today

…

He showed up in a condition I’ve never seen him in.

At first, the knock on the door surprised us

wondering who this was so early on in the day.

So my sister, who was standing much closer to the door opened it up to a quiet greeting and a pad to sign some digital release.

For the package from this postal lady who stood just outside that door

passing a medium-sized box

with big orange stickers

that say

HUMAN REMAINS
