" Edited and Condensed "
by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán
Edited and condensed
adjusted footsteps
in glassed-in spiral stairwells
walled off in open floor plans
with much-sought-after
massive beamed details
like pristine world-class
blazed pathways
beneath stained-
glass transoms
handling high-
fired stoneware
spraying the backstage
with canned fog
sanctioning apartness
in a new memoir
yet getting onto something
while typing and swiping
as signs of isolation
shaped by electronic chaos
fatalistically mismatched
by practicality and romance
in retirement plans
left fighting for life
spiritedly stylish
tip-toeing
in tutus and tunics...
