" The Longest Days "
by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-

The longest days
as unseasonal flowers
bloom freshly for hours
across chenille
soft spreads
of marriage beds
bedecked
by fallen petals
increasingly crying foul
being treated shabbily
for malleability
mislead paid less
having taken
the usual steps
of erection selections
as subsidies for many
returning to the fray
balking at pre-emptive
participation nimbly
invisibly stripped
of privacy hand picked
like comb-finned squid
as social stigmas
lacking in validity
backlashing as flashbacks
of unfairly harvested Vidalias
muddied by crises
of deep reluctancies
thrown off more cautiously
by online pharmacies
threw traditional means
of treating marquee E.D.
more tangibly in onion fields
while facing teary
chemical weaponry...
