Driven by Grievous Dread & Regret

" Driven by Grievous
Dread and Regret "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán

Driven by grievous dread and regret
encrypted with codes of clemency
montaged with the mayhem
of desperately shrunken remnants

bereft of palpable quests
for common sense
seeking benevolence in its stead
preternaturally alert and skeptical
at once specific and general

contents taken out of context
lacking voice-overs and talking heads
kept at a distance by portents
of cobwebbed terror

spinning into consistently
dominant oblivions
heads turning sharply side to side
ruefully costumed in tutus
unscrupulously voided of music...
