" As a Master "
by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán
As a master
of comic style
churning ironies
"slim feasting smiles "
sinewy and lithe
doing " allthelikepluspiety"
becoming dismal and stuffy in size
and number tumbling triumphs
of culture almost lovingly
nonconforming to history
liberally practicing
the ecclesiastical
sacredness of marriage
via curious accountings
long since disbanded
knocking off hats
radical in color in connexion
with public attention
meanwhile electing
to finally decide the question
of all measures of contempt
later inevitable under duress
concerns felt packed during lectures
at lecterns again and again
less evident imposing expressions
of the ordinary self
marching in procession
towards assemblage
across trampled flower-beds
to immense effect...
