Everything But Silence

" Everything But Silence "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán

Everything but silence
as slightly unreal
people creatures and spirits

becoming unusually precise
while sitting, strolling
and lollying about

couched in innuendo
paired overhead
roughly sketched

like pain and pleasure
thick with references altogether disconnected by intention

in linear sequences as of yesterday
conceptually unobjective
among the senses

minus ineffectual pretext
vastly preferential
nonetheless

as unmentionableness
between ourselves
preserved for posterity

like candle snuffers
and the sand glasses
of our forebears

with scrappy portraits of family
calmly in command
quietly overlapping in passages...
