“Barely”
by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán
Barely habitable
blindsided
by rollbacks
losing ground
singled out
into deepening
shadows
while feeling
incidental contact
being sapped
by backfiring pacts
getting antsy
hitting back with pizazz
while scrambling
into the second half
as Neanderthal
strategies prevail
in jazzy drawing classes
at mural scales
staining untreated canvases
dripping from Masters
on Instagram looking batty
with the scrappiness
of a top-hatted ringmaster ...
