Under the Spell

" Under the Spell "

by Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán

for Rebecca, Russ
Kenny, Jimmy
Mark, Danielle
& Eric...

Performed on YouTube
as, " Must Be Done "

Must be done as much
as a thrashing man
and an overbearing female
fueling the jukebox
of an unsound heart
like a hit-packed
show stopper
retooled
by uprooted boomers
Trying really really hard
in belle canto stardom
on tele-charge
as innocuous, ungodly
and largely charm-free
buried underneath
reordering glee
Pioneering revivals
in the twilight
like a diva-sized
ego that never dies
after a haunting life
hiding
out otherwise
inside
indecipherable
overnights
Fallen
under the spell
of a hooch-swilling
bawdy talker
mixing
sordid torch songs
with little more
than overwrought
rotating casts
of amassed
farcical criminal
fragility clinched
with narcissistic
rigidity...
