" Locales for Absentee Chorales "
by Suzán Jiván, Mom
& Mom-Mom Suzán
Ringing out
the most harrowing
annual turnaround
now old-fashioned
and mispronounced
in the backs of chapels
as locales for absentee chorales
of lost sentimentality
surrounded by out-cast
welcome mats
of the liturgical past
caught up
in the outpouring
of a singalong
erupting in applause
on street corners
being besieged
by Sotheby's
during the upheaval
once the cut is complete
while wielding
antiseptic feelings
behind the scenes
dwarfed by surroundings
with slightly surprising
dodgy science as story lines
with touching sights
of uncompromised
lucky strikes archived
by the outdoorsy-minded
caught as insiders
bamboozling clients
with sidewinders
in firefights...
