Yinning and Yanging

" Yinning and Yanging "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-

Now skipping across
awkward positions
of low-level risks
minus culpability
while signaling solemnity
meant to lend gravity
to frazzled razzle-dazzles

clinging to the far and fast
tooth and nail as maladapted
radioactive chiffchaffs
black caps, spiders 'n' bats
left yinning and yanging
after Big Bangs of Big Data

swimming backwards
simultaneously spinning
sticky spider's silk
in minor-key finales
succumbing to aftermaths
covertly in capitals blaring
" Hail to the Chief "

being played with pronounced
wicked streaks--see it, feel it, touch it
competitively shimmying
inevitably left floundering
ridiculously out of reach...
