“ A Matter “ ...

” A Matter “

by Suzán Jiván

A matter of pride
and flagrant surprise
plus entitlement
yet feeling obliged
to vainly try
“To do what’s right”
having been threatened
many times
by hatchets and knives
unhesitant to fire
toward radiators and tires
while keeping both sides
of the story in mind...
