dazzling approximation
of the largely forgotten.

Fearsome

" Fearsome "

suavely muted.

Travails

" Travails "

immersed in uncertainty.

in order
to go
into an
emphatic mode
of fiery solos.

written for a shaggy dog story
where affordable
alternatives are sought.

Inception

Almost from inception
seeming somewhat
less than modern
trickling only just so far
in minimum cuts
shooting and running
toward discordant countrymen
charting a mordant course.

Forgoing

" Forgoing "

by Suzán Jiván

Forgoing indelible indulgences
scraps of clothing
fragments of bone

" Hard-to-Sell "

by Suzán Jiván

remedies for ailing global economies.

devolve into interlinkings
of the pat and the predictable.

the standard
pose shown
