The Long Awaited

" The Long Awaited "

by Suzán Jiván

Performed on YouTube
as, " Just Days Away "

Just days away
from the long-awaited
unfortunate if unavoidable
spanning more
of the carefully thought
intricacies of history
With a temporary kitchen
and a substantial dinner
with a simpler main dish
of chicken livers
in s skillet of persistence
indicative of tradition
As blurred vision
preferably fresh
after losing its redness
returning to the question
of aromas of cherries
as a sixth sense
minus bitterness
As influential as memory
proceeding to benefit
pastry chefs
like rum-raisin
mulled flavors
in three layers
As glazed invitations
smashed into a paste
drizzled with the remaining
lightly dressed preparations
after a spell of cool weather
at the center...
