" Pivotal and Political "
by Suzán Jiván, Mom

Pivotal and political
unfortunate slips
as testy tempers
of unsettling senses
like incandescence
with the tastiness
of multidisciplinary
fennel and fringed gentian
erect smooth stems
irregular petals
elliptical leaflets
tapering ends
visceral grievances
avenging deaths
as dissents
from the bench
and misconduct
by the defense
within the realm
of jurisprudence
constrained
in a regulatory maze
once the veneer
of civilization
stacked on increasingly
mangled small tables
scraped away
as street savvy
proliferations of beige
staged on runaway runways
looming large with black leggings
while marching in parades
and staking claims to ticker tape
in full-service operations as staples
of made-up moneyed games
of modern-day fragrances
like cult favorites that won't fade away
after cantering throughout crusades
as tankers sank on vintage radio
station configurations undulating
in choppy waves dinged and replaced
like breastplates waged as magnates
of speculation kept circulating
while hanging with revelations
widely spaced profanely
as soulful appreciation
for the armless clay
of constant change...
