" Flat-Footed, Long-Winded "
by Suzán Jiván, Mom
& Mom-Mom Suzán
Flat-footed, long-winded
capturing little
with unrestricted permission
being vilified and dismissed
as unprincipled
mementos of misery
inscribed in the glossary
of a polytheistic Choctaw
on televised platforms
of mischievous joy
while playing coy
with the boys next door
wearing pretty boring
stripper pumps of yore
on the cutting room floor
as masters of the hard boiled
in assortments of throaty noises
and ear drum assaults
of all sorts after changing course
with a flexible voice...
