Getting Laughs

" Getting Laughs "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán

Getting laughs it seems by chance
separate events rather
than non-stop photographs

figurative and actual heart
like a visit to the top
of the probably improbable

buzzed in the intercom
staged at bars
as a whole lotta backdrops

sometimes completely dark
gravelly parts
yellow-belly body armor

darker spotting
terrestrially large
taking water on

atop a rock or a log
feeding burrowing frogs
in the margins of ponds

dry to swampy
used like a stopper
under loose bark

plugged against predators
in less than a second
caves and crevices

inflated when threatened
meringue-like nests
fully webbed perpetually intersecting...
