"Winked Objective Eyes Haiku Series"
by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán
Rub elbows, glad hand
offer pithy reflections
buckraking circuits
speechmaking gold mines
rightly provide asylum
defying padlocks
hope for better ties
diplomatic full-court press
tension on the line
emulate rivals
helicopters crowding skies
unnervingly gray
opening tumult
proposed rules not watered down
well capitalized
safety and soundness
consumer fragility
focus on a niche
raided and detained
heartbreak rather than blind rage
tunneling profits
sources of worries
not entirely steady
seemingly sincere
arguments swirling
prior to opening night
winked objective eyes
demeaned desires
histories of agitprop
touted tuneful howls
doting on daughters
case studies in confusion
father/son resolve
concerts in the park
liberal metropolis
curtains coming up...
