"Driving a Hard Bargain"...

" Driving a Hard Bargain "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán

Driving a hard bargain
embodying awkward shards
in a thick blue fog

spotlit by monologues
into the darkness of scholars
skipping hardheartedness

listening with tenderness
to the utterly bleak
while unstintingly
offering mercy
to the skittishly
bickering

with incongruously
numbing riffs
as an offering
of healing
rhythms

performed
by ambiguous
figures weighing in
with jazz-tinged
veiled instruments...
