Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán
The aftermath
diminishing returns
under protocols
of automated calls
and aerial assaults
afternoon blasts
littered sand
slivers of land
stands of grass
medicinal plants
spans of untapped tenacity
like nightshade families
sticky hairy highly variable
lance-shaped alien
clasping inflated lanterns
drooping bells swelling
say, "Yes!" to undressing
when courtship is dead
nude from the get-go
ditto for gigilos in bat guano
long hind legs
protruding egg cases
hiding places
secret spaces
backdrops raging
cults of "Swan Lake"
black rail clappers
aquatic baskets
firm land tended by parents...
