“Still Reeling”

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán

Still reeling
heard screaming
as outpourings of grief
dictating strategies
of remembrance
and re-imaginings
like mind-bending realities
expanding canons of originality
striated patterned
slightly abstracted
after years of traveling
up and down
undulant mountains
like concocted topographies
of pink-daubed white dots
collaging stars
in homage to our own oddness
sipping Sauvignon Blanc
in the front yard
mimicking a skilled novelist
going whole hog...
