Romantic Seriousness

" Romantic Seriousness "

by Suzán Jiván

Romantic seriousness
merging love celebration and memory

while leaning heavily on ambiguity
and asterisked pangs of feeling

old and ugly becoming a little fuzzy
after wondering

yet ultimately conjuring up
earthly intensity

by spring boarding
out of hard-bop mode

emerging unbowed
bouncing up and down

with raw stripped-down rhythms
devoided of frills

patchy and compassionate
embellished by essential influences

with theatrical leanings
transitioning from silk

plastic apparel lighted
by dazzling paper lanterns...
