Wondering What ?!

" Wondering What ?! "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-

Wondering what ?!
well wonder no more
just a' sidlin' up to a whisper

in a line up of quieter
prior times like annual rites
before and after midnight

on again off again
after putting up
with being put down

armed exclusively
with ukuleles
and humor

no more no less
singalong and singsongy
whether I'm right
or whether I'm wrong

comme ci comme ca
pip-pip cheerio
stiff upper lip
and all that rot

as in semi-official lyrics
leading to unreason
entirely by third parties

while easy listenin'
within graying
legal vicinities
of inexperience

clownin' around
then escalating
into rough housing
in safe houses

as the walls
come 'a tumblin' down
over-n-out 10-4 chow...
