Superimposed No-Fly Zones

" Superposed No-Fly Zones "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


Support slipping
heading off
strife and soil



facing faltering aggressively
co-ordinated already claimed
unacknowlegeable mistakes



as every indication of final preparations
while holding out hope already evoked
by veritable cloning of drones



having suffered strokes
like dazzlingly unknowable
best knowns overtaken
in superimposed no-fly zones...

Long-Vanished Skullcaps

" Long-Vanished Skullcaps "


by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


Narrow alleyways
of long-vanished skullcaps
buzzing bugs of summer
become hardly hummable
largely punked never seen coming


refusing to wake up
save for the sound
of rockets in the pitch dark
as massacred heartthrobs
spout reams of techno-jargon


ninnily obvious
sweet-naturedly frisky
under the influence of,
" Is that all there is? "


meticulously wincing
compulsively free-spirited
yet never exactly accurate
tactically impacted
by collateral damage...

Orgiastic Risk Takers

" Orgiastic Risk Takers "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán

Orgiastic risk takers
not for fame's sake
as oddly-logical
nano dots
in deep pockets
of limited-edition
mason jars
with screw-on tops



hand-casted
in bronze
top-to-bottom
during most-wanted
fauvish dramas
as softened targets
in analog...

Try Different Eye Looks

" Try Different Eye Looks "


by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


Try different
eye looks
capture
all the light
wide-opened
magnified
stainless steel
and diamonds



vanguards
of par excellence
as wordsmith moms
in flower bombs
with concealers
built right in
floating over
lines and wrinkles
while going
the distance



getting more
bang-for-the-buck
becoming undone
by clump crushers
from seaside
to city scenes
as exfoliating
micro beads
of retro sepia
over white tees
hugged by
beloved
blue jeans



nothing more flattering
modern and romantic
blue plasma monastic
traffic-cone boho sacks
of mirror metallics
inked with "That's It!"...

Gingham Goes Glam

" Gingham Goes Glam "


by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


Must-haves
as luminous
lifts from within
by true religions
beyond wit


award-winningly
bewitching
fade-defying
deliberateness


stay-all-day
printed and framed
backstage makeups
like cult favorites
of donned mascaraed lashes
longingly marauding along catwalks


heightened graphics
for one-of-a-kind inhabitants
at least in fashion
with youthful hands


as hooligans of high fashion
and doyennes with scraggly flair
unanimously hailed while wearing
minimalistic sportswear


due for comebacks
catapulted by big shoulder pads
and sought-after checkered details
as gingham goes glam...

Where Insiders Chill

" Where Insiders Chill "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


Where insiders chill
in couture-worthy
youth-infused filler ups


dramatically perused
by the clinically proven
after weeks of use suffused
with enriched mousses


cushy creamy
behind the scenes
with formerly skinny-
dipping bare midriffs


in nocturnal decisions
of the lithe and stylish
feted by candlelight
in full-course dinners filled
with provocative images


wearing boater hats
and gladiator sandals
carrying straw-man
bags while prancing
in teased-out bikini pants


sporting baubles
spawned all across
well-moisturized pores
with foots in the door


as exclusive offerings
of glamour girls grinning
with lipsticked mouths for nipples
in ginned-up-cloud-lit windows...

Simulating Ruby Jubilees

" Simulating Ruby Jubilees "


by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


Most wanted
maximized
matrimonial lives
visibly tightened
lifted and firmed
during reinterpreted
courtship rituals
reconvened
in preconceived
beauty routines




crushed mint
pink pepper
taking looks
up a notch
with whipstitched
tasseled zippers
as second hands
continually sweep



designed to be
precisely like
your nearest
fine retailer
cell-boosting
patents
getting graphic
in worn metallic pants


with looks that matter
like repair-wear
with sun-damaged
exactness
in the befores
and afters of the garish




iconic items denoted
by online buyers
getting their shines on
while simulating ruby jubilees
on intricate weaves of sterling
with slews of sequins
suspended from a trapeze
satisfaction guaranteed...

The Weirdly Beautiful

" The Weirdly Beautiful "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


The weirdly beautiful
oozing gooeyness
through puffs
of menthol cool


as an accidental hobbyist
carving smoke rings
of incredibility
in this side
of the money line


seemingly naïve
as appealing pieces
of Play-doh
rolled into snakes
by masters
of hand-over-hand


dried out overnight
with the rites
of dyed heroes


"Be Right There!"
as bubbly off-brands
poured into fluted glasses
of frugality with thinned gilt rims...

Over-Ripened Still Lifes

" Over-Ripened Still Lifes "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


Ardent gardeners
as post-modernist
heirloom phenomenons



piled high
like over-ripened
side-splitting still-lifes



seen as long-lived individuals
retrofitted
with hammers and sickles...

Bereft and Left Unread

" Bereft and Left Unread "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán



Seldom read
as anything
persistently
hardbitten
by the long-lived
comeuppance
of sticklers
in book clubs



as the unpublished
bulk up to become
uppity self-publishers
like page-turning
newcomers
to oneupmanship



as super-chunk surplus
of urgently limited
special editions
in blusteringly
ungovernable
redundancy
unbecomingly
bereft and left unread...

Original Aboriginal Editions

" Original Aboriginal Editions "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


Making nice
in the title
as whatever's
required
for ties that bind
over the long while


like tiny bits
gathered
in the millions
for big pictures
of living tissue
at 3-D printers


as ritual-ladened
mammae ornamentation
in original Aboriginal editions...

Global Mean Seas

" Global Mean Seas "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


Vowing to retract
a seemingly unlikely lack
of previously inconceivable
oceanic human factory factors



removing the right
to a trial by fire
while showering
with money as needed
during televised speeches
of checkbook diplomacy
raising global mean seas



coursing through society
justifying the rise
of group findings
by citing calamitous
climatic indictments
at flood tide...

Doubled-Up Skullduggeries

" Doubled-Up Skullduggeries "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


Foiled machinations
at a depleated pace
fuzzed up hunched over
by doubled-up skullduggeries


sprinkling ashes
with all the trappings
of a lip-locked hipster
been widowed


still glistening
with the old-fashionedness
of foiled wrap
opposed to the modernness
of zipped locks...

Splashes of Crazy

" Splashes of Crazy "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


Splashes of crazy
heaving and hawling
erased and redrawn
as bleeding
behemoths of mink


not immediately
returning calls
of wire fraud
during beers
one through four



rip-roarious
guffaws
beneath pitching
deck floors
amid bousterous
calls
of "all aboard! "
as blares
of canned laughter
laid bare...

Sovereignal Anomalies

" Sovereignal Anomalies "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


Options few
replete
with repeated
pleas
in harrowing
scenes


streamed live
like pains
taken
with troves
of invalidated
data


as planets
in passing
common
or rare
in space-
gathered galaxies
of sub-par stars
harbored
by myth mongers


ungainly titles
of outright denial
like empty-eyed
tie-dyers
impossible to do
otherwise


along with the insistence
of non-existence
like clenched spectral scepters
of sovereignal anomalies...

Dolloped Armpits

" Dolloped Armpits "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán

There they thrive
vast breeding colonies
of wing-beating geneses
as down-curved bills
and dolloped armpits
flap and sail sunny-side-up...

Ballots and Bullets

" Ballots and Bullets "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


A crackdown widens
while worries mount
as on-again-off again
ballots and bullets


succumbing to intro-
uterine pseudo-coups
gestating as guardians
of the flame doused
by a new-mother's
lactational sprays



past generations
of babies
having been
suckled
on necrotic
nipples
spew projectiles
of noxious
vomit
as gas-riddled
infants
screech and gasp
in the ghastly
agonies
of public squares...

Scrubby Melancholy

" Scrubby Melancholy "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán

Shockingly portrayed
scrub pine and scrub jays
like melancholic voice-over artists
donning water-soluble blue oxfords
nearly swallowing over-the-top
high-drama goings on
in jam-packed farces
of non-stop goofiness and charm
as knicky-knacky all holds barred...

Bribed and Finagled

" Bribed and Finagled "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


Bribed and finagled
with sniggery
pulsating beats
while scavenging
illicitly
as must-sees
atop steamy
black-carrion meals




finding savory
scavenged surprises
eliciting golden-eyed
insight
for licketty wild kitties
and unfetteredly
naked red heads...

Ilks of Off-Kilter

" Ilks of Off-Kilter "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


Kinda familiar
after being kicked
around a bit
as a nebbishly
skeletal director
tricked into filming
a noirishly obvious
horror flick


unmitigatedly
staying above
the cinematic fray
as tethered machete-ed remains
apocalyptically portrayed
suspended in skylit caves


like milieus of innumerable oodles
of grisly festival fringe grappling
on the skids as impetus
for disproportional ilks of off-kilter...

Arachnid-Minded-Eight-Eyed Diarists

"Arachnid-Minded-Eight-Eyed Diarists"


by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


Frightfully compiled
much-maligned
arachnid-minded
eight-eyed diarists


unrighteously bereft and bereaved
with the fear and unease
of bared sharks' teeth
while cringing in the back seat
of a late-date cabriolet



heeding the day
when vampish ladies
and peg-legged
men sail away
with the piratical
practices of avaricious
cliff-dwelling passerines




while night-time bicycle lights strobe brightly as handle-bar-mounted
carillons clamorously hammer home lauded canonical nocturnes



lending airs of urgency
like flying fur
as ravenous versions
of preying raptors
in strict observance
of mattins...

Albino Bottle-Nosed Blowholers

" Albino Bottle-Nosed Blowholers "


by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


No faith
little credit
under extreme
umbrella groups
in beclouded
state rooms



on the cusp of culpable
"no matter whats"
as ombudsmen
of "whatever is or was"
in greater numbers



climbing to new heights
with fear on the rise
in derisive economic climates
awaiting trials of "high and mighty"
like pervasively gaping avian invaders



as albino bottle-nosed blowholers
emulate white-face-painted clowns
circa circus comedy routines
with fools' squirting boutonnières




in pastimes that bind the indicted
"more-than-likely" by traipsing
through corny mazes of serial daters
maniacally formulaic in leather 'n lace
huskily under weight...

Flood Havens for Gulag-Gate Operators

" Flood Havens
for Gulag-Gate Operators "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


Flood havens
for gulag-gate
operators
like "gnaw"-"sea"-ating
lodgers engorging
themselves
beneath "sea"cretly
shored-up
public boardwalks


"sea"king
streamlined
embracings
of sharp-teethed
near-sighted freaks


stemming the tides
of scaly-tailed leaders
slapped with "sea"-rious
damnably leaked
a-"gnaw"-ingly
spe-"sea"-cious
prior agreements...

Chronicling Zombie Reciprocities

" Chronicling Zombie Reciprocities "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


Joined at various points
of not caring anymore
for the splitting of hairs
in gnarly recordings
of classical love stories
from unconfirmed reports
of desultory moralists


sallying from rally to rally
while desiring to leap
down from behemoth steeds
unpersuasively wavering
in bewildering rings
simultaneously signaling
unfortunate auguries


fleetingly uplifting
the down-and-dirty
as ashious scatterings
of scatological repasts


landlocked
in ragtag toddles
of familial goings-on
without the bother
of chronicling
zombie reciprocities...

Not Long Departed

" Not Long Departed "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán



Not long departed
gone on hopscotching
in or on any row or column
of long-necked objects



all-encompassingly
subconscious
bewigged
thick-lipped
jumbles
of stitched-up
sock puppets
piled up
as concurrent
non subjects


in scenes beneath
vaulted ceilings
gripping beers
in oratorial blue streaks
lacking seasoning
and needing solace
after hearing
"oohs" and "ahs"
as wrinkled
foreheads get knotty




having left out
the second "n"
in an attempt
to spell
"millennium"
on the first Monday
of every month
being nonplussed
by bees in DUMBO...

Drugged Up Just Duckies

" Drugged Up Just Duckies "


by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


Far from home
speaking at length
to a third baseman
booed at the plate
broad shouldered
barrel chested
all alone


reinforced
by the rusty rebar
of an evil patriarch
from a monster junkyard
on a monolithically
melancholic march
to the ballpark



paying homage to muddied cleats
as performance enhancing pathologies
with peevishly pink gum bubbles
blown up by over a dozen studs resulting from cover ups of dug outs
for drugged up "just duckies"...

Smatterings of Lavish Violet Sacraments

"Smatterings of Lavish
Violet Sacraments"


by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


Bang bang
banter
rang down
the curtain
in phantom
garage-band
classics
measured
as knots
and fathoms
in random
smatterings
of lavish
violet
sacraments


drawn out
dragged down
as past examples
of largely pale
inborn attractions
delirious perhaps
as suddenly
saddened stares
assembled
with planned
digital animus


insensitively
arrayed
as cliched
ready-mades
played-down
like remade maidens
in cagey outtakes
on reverentially
bent legs...

Waist-Cinching Tests of Wit

" Waist-Cinching Tests of Wit "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


Waist-cinching
tests of wit
within a day trip
of a nemesis
as a spelling bee
for one tough cookie


gluten-free Homeric routes
to home-based jamborees
of prayer beaded
sweet-treat brownies


acquired by museums
as jumbled-up atmospheric
big leaps of un-realness
vertically and laterally
dotted on sconce-like shelves
of sole objects in retrospect


festooned by predecessors
under the rubrics of barely-seen
early pieces welded radially
wending toward the fatalistic
sacrilege of trickle-down kitsch...

Bonneted Colleagues

" Bonneted Colleagues "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


Unheeded warnings
brushing aside pleas
while walking freely
with the risk of knee breaches
anywhere out of reach
of bonneted colleagues



lacking defacto pink slips
while leaving longtime loyalties
stalked up a tree after stepping
before profiled discourses
in order to avoid the miscalling
of bluster and cornpone...

Might of Bygone Pylons

" Might of Bygone Pylons "


by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán


Once wealthy designer threads
as track records
running out of sequence


since heaven knows when
as torturous back stories
never ever read


whizzing with head-spinning
dexterity of zany sketches
for kvetching eggheads


as kitchen-sink toxic algae
bloom madly on hills of beans
cloned for overseas


as do-or-die humans alike
reunite in stylized violence
propped up by the might
of bygone pylons...

Egging on a Monarch

" Egging on a Monarch "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán

Egging on a monarch
with a bird's sense of smell
feeding, breeding, insect eating

ecological theories
natural inquiries
underscoring needs

shifting strategies
for nocturnal species
governing dwindling diversity

accessing native bees
bequeathed to olfactory starlings
surmised by buzzing wings...
