Not So Fast

" Not So Fast "

by Suzán Jiván, Mom
& Mom-Mom Suzán

Throbbing vocals
cheeky cameos
old-fashionably
claustrophobic

as sounds
coming out
of anesthesia
recording a horse
closer to a dog
but neither an otter
nor a walrus

in gallons of water
smooth yet heavy
glossaries of effects
like stringing bows
across copper bowls

as sonic prospects
of artillery while whistling
past the clatterings of cavalry
in the middle of a vast battle
as the leader of the pack--not so fast...
