" Like Changing Planets "
by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-

Like changing planets
bringing new clarity
just short of the garish
as spray-painted clouds
floating droplets
of allegorical abstraction
portrayed in aging
plaster and lathe
muraled mansions
lighted by romanticized
oil lamps mimicking
skewered olives
in martini glasses
like cocktail gags
of whiskey and ginger ale
lovingly prepared
with practiced hands
after pole dancing
during perverse classics
tossing shakers in the air
displayed under glass
preserved with detail...
