Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán
Polite and cordial
derogatorily altered
on deed-of-gift forms
breaking into grins
never knowing
which ink to spill
lividly wincing
flicks of wrists
banging fists
walking off cliffs
lacking wills
starling beginnings
highly suspicious
worried well
imprecisely in our heads
old-fashioned spectacles
hunched over desks
with ideal vitamin levels
scorpion venom
prescribed without question
cyber sick chronically ill...
