Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán
Indifferent or indiscriminate
dressed to kill war weary
stranded dolphins on Cape Cod
bottle nosed smoldering
gulping being coaxed
out in droves of crossbows
etched all over as eye openers
on loan like loopholes in gazebos
rarely in sync hanging from the ceiling
every year since gone missing
as robotic figures in armor
peacocking in the fashion flock
glitzy parties fanciful progenies
surges in artistry delving deeper
filigreed chroniclings out of courtesy
zeroing in at the peak of red pleats
on the street feeling the squeeze
fleeing uncertain journeys
in dingy port cities poised for freedom
foundering at sea with impunity
comforting weeping refugees
dodging police with urban amnesty
while lacking amenities
more beholding to bulldozing
on the dole on rudimentary roads
in violations of codes since grown...
