" 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"...
