"On Hiatus"...

" On Hiatus "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-

On hiatus
to where
sounds
have colors
and colors
have tastes

verbatim
to bold-faced
interpretation
well past
middle age

phased in
over decades
like fracases
in mountain-
top chalets

taken
as leaps
of faith
tethered
to popular
imagination

with lower
stakes
having
waxed
and waned

across lunar
landscapes
of tidal change
at flood stage...
