“Formally Labeled”

by Suzán Jiván Mom & Mom-Mom Suzán

Formally labeled, “ The worst day!”
seeking safety from manipulation
and outrage while declining
to address past language in the wake
of, “racist hate” as an, “evil contagion”
bullets grazing babies pitchers saying,
“The ball feels differently this year!”
leading to tinkering with grips
on splitters like drill-bit coagulates
with the same Latin origin as, “inch”
while navigating the world with chips
and hieroglyphs being pushed by winds
throughout a vast solar system
all with the equivalent
of the weight of a paper clip
when taking no prisoners
as interplanetary turf battles begin ...
