“Fathom or Foot”
by Suzán Jiván Mom & Mom-Mom Suzán
Fathom or foot like one
of nine on a nonagon

emptied bog
tapped-out quag
no-longer waterlogged…

by Suzán Jiván Mom & Mom-Mom Suzán
“I don’t believe you!”
being dealt or folded
as a kind of crushing
concussive scrum
whizzing missiles
and whistling artillery
sordidly launched
during an immoral war …
“Not Shown Here”
by Suzán Jiván Mom & Mom-Mom Suzán
Not shown here

laid to waste

as a “Go” signal, maybe

“The Girl Next Door”

voicing one’s humanity
in anthems chants

over vast expanses
defending the homeland
as massive bombs land …

Holy hell!
Bloody hell!
Dear God!
Holy Mother of God!
Oh my stars!!!
