" A Balancing Act "
by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-

A balancing act
adapting
hand-over-hand
rather than
underhanded
after a fashion
wallowing up
to the gunwales
drawing blank stares
as third-class
mopping up of hair
imperiously
demanding
egg-yellow vans
surrounded
by empty bags
and the grimy
hands of famine
running scared
driven by passion...
