"Taking a Harder Line"...

" Taking a Harder Line "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán

Taking a harder line
revisiting rivals
distributing fliers

surviving on re-hydrated salts long-since slaughtered
quiet exhaustion

suddenly sealed off
sexual assaults
hardly walking

absorbing refugees
living in fear of hostility
native-speaking
constituencies

here illegally
supporting amnesty
tightening series

land-mine fields
foraging riskily
acting nominees

mono-racial natures
of convulsive mayhem
zigzagging actions

shimmering cameras unveiled
yet the shows won't air
after taking yearlong naps
as serial slammings

with dizzying
middles
of winter chills
setting in

like fiendishly
ingenious
multiple
appearances

with little
or no interest
in niceties
growing rickety
woozy figurines...
