" Quirks and All "
by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán
Quirks and all
whooping and roaring
hooping and hollering
during curtain calls
for impromptu
girls next door
being likened
to theme songs
anonymously performed
as warnings
for less-than-perfect recall
encompassed floor to ceiling
while kicking
into sauntering swing
ensnared on a slanted
playing field
of hopeless entreaty
embodying whispery
hyperclarity
like scavenged malleability
puckishly plummy
unbecomingly blunt
as was the custom...
