" Requiem Refrains "
by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán
Unswayed by intimidation
in your face firmer than a barricade
of big names manipulated
by timetables and soap science
with fixed IQs
in avoidance of execution
as static thankless tasks
like polishing latex finger nails
painted in anticipation of a wake
with "ah-ha" requiem refrains
in close proximation
to something of a brouhaha
of genealogy for solo concerts
devoid of grandiosity
like humble pie served as shoofly
call it piracy of privacy
dreamed up naïvely
pitching enigmatically
with listing sidekicks
racing into revisions
by buccaneering
on the high seas
draped over our seats
free diving into fiercely
outpoured lives...
