" A Popular Tablet "
by Suzán Jiván Mom & Mom-Mom Suzán
A popular tablet slipped under the tongue
miles above sea level for "Goodfellas" of chemistry
aw, "Fiddlesticks" power bits for money grubbers
sassily anti-inflammatory "Ain't nothin' like it!"
" Silly rabbit Trix are for kids!"
I'm goin' "Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs!"
while stickin' with it in my still life
It's nothing really! Neither eros nor ethos arts briefly
awkwardly toying with feelings of ecstatic release
via easily parodied "groupthink" observational comedy
readily knocked essentially gone "pop" at the prom
sonic tempo and volume but please not "do-op"
in an unhurried jog commenting, "What's missing in art?
cum laude? like bow ties with honors for anyone who wants
to learn on the job in mom-and-pop shops in rock operas?"
being taken way out of context near-and-far NOT
having gone far too far while sucking on lozenges
as overly sensitive to tree-pollen mission impossibles
got it going bonkers "Ma-velous! Oh my gawd! So obvious! Solid!"...
