Can't Advance

" Can't Advance "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán

Can't advance
toward rare chances
at the back of the class
while decoding tsetse genes
like bare-knuckled ditties via proxy

stunningly hot diggity
during old home weeks
being a bit naughty
with sleeves trimmed off

as plush pouty mouths
are largely hushed
then bulked up
'n' whittled down
then freaked out
after sneaking around
and skedaddling

being frowned upon
as call-and-response
running the risk
of pleasing neither

like clumsy comical luck
panickly long planned
worryingly emblematic
haplessly atmospheric

wielding cameras
toward traumatic pasts
supplanted by pre-programmed
actions of bedragglement
uncannily moving hand-in-hand...
