" After the Fact "
by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán
After the fact
where it matters
left barbed
right from the start
wearing weakening hearts
on bloodied sleeves
simultaneously
panning for laughs
with everything bland
before during and after
embattled halves
doing the dance
manically sharing
glaring face masks
gaspingly inhaling
the rarified air
of abject failure...
