" Not Only in Human "...

" Not Only in Human "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán

Not only in human
but in animal form too
as the flowers of youth
rooted in ritual

cherk bones green
faces yellow
ploughing and sowing
growing stalks
into ears of corn
with returning waters

becoming outspread
all but erect
as one out of many
tombs and temples

closely connected
to dust and death
both manifest
and memorable

like rays of red
blue and yellow
arrowheads
being directed
by kindred energy...

" Unconventional Stars "...

" Unconventional Stars "

by Suzán Jiván

Unconventional stars
professionals
as party-hardy
including helicopters
of disparate genres

starkly intimate
entering into
giving the business
to irregular visitors

pushing the limits
like oddballs and strippers
from nowhere in particular

rhythmically rich
like truth serums
administered
unvarnished
to non-listeners

in an homage
to noxious narcissists
while living in crimson-
drenched labyrinths

equipped
with false
windows
as witnessed
by provocative
dead ringers...
