“ I Am Obsessed “

I am obsessed
funny enough
with someone
who expressed
unexpected
feelings
of tenderness

my mouth agape
as a masked man
spoke words
of wisdom
into the curvature
of my right ear

while I
lie supine
for deeply
needed
cleanings
and healing
treatments

offering
prescriptives
of wellness
and much
better health

instruments
at the ready
well educated
well read
decked
in protective
yellow...

“ Partly to Mostly “ ...

“ Partly to Mostly “

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán

Partly to mostly sunny
increasing clouds
by the thousands
going underground
unfettered to the south
via encrypted channels
due to acute embarrassment

neither “villain” nor “victor”
being assessed as, “victims”
sitting down to dinner
as unassisted missions gain interest
clashing ever since by reversing optimism

meant to outwit peaceful tactics
with bristling strategies
of dangerous rational
exacting huge human price tags

while looking to score laughs
with ads of sweet salves
shelled out on laugh tracks
“It’s only fair” due to rising scandals
in estate planning with holograms
of animated families poorly forecast...

“ It’s Going to Be OK “ ...

” It’s Going to Be OK “

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán

It’s going to be OK
even AOK
as run by the trained
case by case
patient by patient
getting placed,
“You don’t say!”
“Is it a mistake
left unexplained?”
“What is
in a name anyway?”
having attained
joyful congratulations
creating arcing rainbows
all in a rainy day...

“ Bracing “ ...

” Bracing “

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán

Bracing put into play
like an FBI case
filed on Super Bowl Sunday
via hall-of-famers’
strenuous campaigns

all the way from backwaters
to the world stages
much too hard to turn away
as the cradle of civilization
Hollywood too is changing

addressing the causes of pain
during Winter Olympic Ganes
private and public places
artist-based illustrators
painters educated engaging
headline-making prognosticators

becoming diffused and flammable
like spray-painted persuasion
scraped away harsh blame
having interfered with investigations
and creating seismic chaos

staking shaky secret claims
making stunning statements
while possibly memorizing
“The Someday”
filled with mis-statements
of bespangled misinformation...

“ Infinite “ ...

“ Infinite “

by Suzán Jiván Mom
& Mom-Mom Suzán

Infinite versatility
where beauty begins
finding personal intuition
via “hide and go chic”
capturing spring
cropped and pleated
so shimmery
ingenious rosy pinks
from behind the scenes
going green
lucky lucky me
healthily transitioning
chartreuse leaves
emerging spiraling
releasing bursting
with vitality
love’s enriching bounty...

“ Ideas Now “ ...

” Ideas Now “

by Suzán Jiván Mom
& Mom-Mom Suzán

Ideas now blow outs ’n’ updos
via a woman’s intuition
feeling revitalized instantly
eyes igniting larger and brighter
day to night pretty much, “Paradise”
like just-in-time street styles
striking neck lines diaried
highlights sparks flying...

“ Wishful Thinking “ ...

” Wishful Thinking “

by Suzán Jiván Mom
& Mom-Mom Suzán

Useful thinking
mixed in with uncertainty
still questioning aesthetic intent
with finely tuned instruments
kept at the ready along with extra
time and effort as supposed art objects
while showing holes above jutting knobs
plus hash marks mimicking the subconscious
not fully acknowledged...
