Retrieving Wheels of Cheese

" Retrieving Wheels of Cheese "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-

Moving past scandals
with jellyfish genes
live on Wall Street
mocking offspring


covered in maple
leaves and knotweed
while retrieving
wheels of cheese


as epiphanies
for pickled piglets
and jerk chicken
tending to rekindle
step sisters


with bare minimums
as sibling spin
by Aboriginal children
in organic head trips



both good and bad just after days
teenage campaigns
calling soda commercials racist
as a mainstream phalanx
of home-made carbonation


in combination with tomatoes and eggs
invoking get aways similar in shape
to uninitiated pungent marinades
finding their way to extraordinary
flavors browned and braised


ground to a rough paste
with upper body strength
while sopping up fragrant
tablespoons of entrees


with the promises of grapes
as sweet intakes cooked sustainably
in local landscapes of root-eating
aphids and warm-jowl bacon


riveting minute-by-minute
with a hop and a flick
barely a whisper
off the fingertips
towards the rim
akin to a drop shot
of raw ferocity


fairly hard-bodied
plant hoppers
soft-winged
flower beetles
heads concealed
feathery antennae


emerging suspects
private sectors expelled
holding their breath
getting by defenders
granted clemency
under settlement


rationed daily bread
lines of questioning
changed perspectives
flagging potential
insurgents suspects


monogamous
loose colonies
snails, tadpoles
salamanders
highly gregarious
walking well on land


"cluk , cluck, cut, putt"
powerfully muscular
tail-spread strut
intensified color...
