Exploding the notion
of bearing stamps
as we began
II
Like dried flowers
dangling
by tangled hairs
III
Hand-stamped
with incessant
randomness
IV
Crisscrossed in pairs
of blue blooms
as connubial woos...

The greatest singing
as sensual simplicities
seductive, sexy and sublime
like romantic texts
for mezzos and tenors
in evenings out
as stand outs
bound
by partnerings
like yearnings
for strings
vividly realized
enticingly divine...
by Suzán Jiván
With more than just a touch
by marching in place
singing and hissing
mimicking a branding
with the soft kick
of a cosmic premise
under the auspices
of sturdier spurs
as jangling cacophonies
transcending finalities
re-entering openings
with intrigue
like kindling
knocking knees
and rocking
back on heels
while longing
for the feeling
of being healed...
by Suzán Jiván
An intimately scaled view
quote, " I'll do it for you! "
unquote, in order to share
the human as a scant longer than
still perhaps deadpan well imagined
as it so happens like insurmountable
flicking hips inclined to agree
however fervently with wait-and-see
as perpetually seen on a screen
padded with cheerleading
and a pivoting global reach...

Often at odds
with the majority
of judicial opinions
permitting strip-
searches been split
on a decision
dropping the notion
as makers of lotion
along a slippery slope
where housing
once boomed
for prosperity anew
as a popular spot
for crashing
a political party...

A vast that you can
carry in hard copy
without an anxiety attack
on margin-less pages
jam-packed with the dynamic
formed from the forehead
modeled in clay
creeping into the middle lane
honk all you want...

High side

mirror-like

With a polyglot chanteuse like blue
skies taken away by a frequent
collaborator with brilliant arrangements
singing grippily, angelically and huskily
as you might have guessed
like a grisly end for the prettiest
with new efforts of sudden
astonishments seemingly selling
except for selections on the odder end
as defenders trying to be deceptive
at the high end of good intentions...

Devil's walkingstick
unable to pull free
silky hairy
milky sap
inflated sac
strap-shaped
flower aromatic
when crushed
male clusters
finely dissected
tipped with bristles
hooked tips
hooded chigger...

Eye-bafflingly radical chic
depicted repeatedly
with throats slit
including a prime minister
dating back
to the admirable
as ramshackle
and harmlessly uncanny
after joining hands
in a fashion
with the classical
ranging
from tight underwear
to thigh-high boots
adorned
with unobtrusive tutus...
by Suzán Jiván
Enslaved by a boom
involving the ruthless
exploding into view
with numerical tattoos
etched by rulers
of prostitution
recently rescued
essentially legally
but overruled
by Brutalism
midway through
modal tunes
dancing
as disaster looms
aimed at the shrewd
and unscrupulous
shouting, " Screw it! "
in tribute...
by Suzán Jiván
Equally before the viewer
abstractly and greatly enlarged
looking patiently engaged
while wearing a soft black beret
pulled down over the face
in revelation as subsequent
self-actualization needing to feel
the agreeable and exceedingly
coming of age in chaotic phases
like swank kingmaking
in worshipful wakes
staged during reincarnation
as a spirited leading lady
now famously clichéd
like a foggy landscape
donning an olive cardigan, pink socks and a canary costume...voilà!
by Suzán Jiván
Shallow water
rolling in
like a diocesan
devoted
to ending poverty
in a ballpark
neither fresh
nor processed
as butter-colored
lesser celandine
heard as a sigh
ineffably gentle
unsettlingly
sentimental
leaning delicately
like a feathery seed
besotted by a city
settling for the dreary
doggedly hoarding
a maul-stick
along a lighted wall
of the so called florid
monolithic form
as a self-portrait
for the keenly real
breathing out
breathing in
inexorably...
by Suzán Jiván
for Poet Lester Mobley
Joining hands
with shares
of handsome
in a pageant
of extravaganzical
jazz dating back
overlapping firsthand
coming to pass
as a frontman
wearing gladiator's
sandals spun
into glass
with the hankerings
for fantasy
venturing nowhere
else than
into spectacled
events
scene together...

I
Already tried
alongside
the most identifiable
vocal styling
expressing perplexity
not to mention
slow-mending content
by play's end
II
Force-fed
unedited
and never
innocent
like a raging
mess
in definition
of hell
finally mellowing
when expressed
as hypersexual
falsetto...
by Suzán Jiván
A volatile mix
strip-searched
debt-burdened
plunging statistics
decades since
as officially
sanctioned
laggards
fitting in
as half
of an advocate
for an unarmed
granny-nanny
scantily clad
in the slammer
lampooned
on Fox News
in a penal suit...
by Suzán Jiván
Coming to a cutting edge
intensely curling with energy
like an underling
deluded into thinking
of nagging possibilities
in freaky slang with a deadpan exchange during a leap of faith...
by Suzán Jiván
Creating the hotsy-totsy
with sci-fi G-strings
and spinning tassels
with arms to the sides
while vying
for the decidedly high-brow
by jumping up and down...

Needles of seedlings
being widely short-leafed
like Loblolly thornless and tiny
with thin prickles as poor timber
releasing seeds snapped cleanly...
by Suzán Jiván
So you like me now
solving the puzzle
of deep dark matter
like teeming detectives
breaking into the brain
for a periodic table
under observation
while saving language
in a new space
sleeping in Kenya
detecting temps
of elephants
shedding body weight
taken miles away
in a visualization
tending to concentrate
with innovation
from the cranium
like a craving
residing as appetite
for linguistic ability
perceived as uniquely
superior colleagues
native to hideaways
remotely voracious...
by Suzán Jiván
Incessant quests
of nothing less
when perceived
through the flesh
as infinitesimal
rounded heads
blended as elements
out of context
developed afresh
as eyes and necks
for watermelons
except for the red
prerequisite...
by Suzán Jiván
Off the grid
in the woods
with urban
outlets
as scalpers
selling
collect-ables
with deep
scrapes
on electro-
plated fakes
mostly de-based
by de-layed
payments
in two-
faced be-trayals
scared away
without
ex-planation
with an ex-
clamation
of dis-taste...
by Suzán Jiván
Soon noticed
like halos
for virtuosos
taking hold
of a jazz-ladened
secret code
remarkably straight
forward growing
much as solos
in nutty episodes
with showbiz glitz
replete with screaming,
" CHEESE! " like a trite reminder
of the unanalyzable bump and grind...
by Suzán Jiván
Sorely tested by the less
than picturesque psychosexual
without question artfully felt
forever bent by irregular edges
stripped of the sentimental...
by Suzán Jiván
Within the natural world
underpinnings of instinct
undermined with tradition
like fundamental principles
of intellect inscribed
by underlying entitlements
in annotated manuscripts
preserved as scripture
by accomplished artisans
at detached palaces
for indistinguishable leaders
elevated onto the platforms
in main halls within tall walls
of coincidence as ginned
periods for rejiggered provinces
of limitless promises...
by Suzán Jiván
Auspicious responses
in streets and blocks
undertaken as patrons
no more than a meter away
as a gathering place
for migrating cranes
in courtship display...
by Suzán Jiván
Bodies of limestone
splendidly colorless
as crystalline abundance
double refracted
compact and granular
emerging out as power
generating machinations
attributed to a sage
of yin and yang
visualized
like a landscape
living in brilliance
sleeping with deities
on sacred peaks
representing the empty
as infinitely pregnant
wordlessly sequential...
by Suzán Jiván
for Jeremiah 51
I will rise up
round about
in pieces
of brigandine
suddenly
fallen as falsehood
like a former
weapon of war
destroyed
in the corner
of a shelled wall
pleading
for the cause
after
a rejoicing roar...
by Suzán Jiván
Inspired by Joshua 9 in the Bible
Now therefore
let them live
as the princes
promised
in desolation
sore afraid
at the entering
of the gate
before all
the congregation
heard the fame
feared greatly,
" Save us! "
against the many
out of the cave
let none remain...

One woman's incredible best
coming up ahead in a top trend
for the feminine in one step
of confidence with essential leather
thrown over-the-shoulder
as a hardcore nonconformist
scoop-necked, V-necked and triple X'd
by Suzán Jiván
Exclusive peeks
coveted as punchy
with the accuracy
of a cinch
becoming privé
to wrinkle-free
permanency
weightlessly
snagging
elasticity
in intoxicating
layers of pretty faces
regenerated by facials
during male-dominated dates
despite the great pay
promised by large
heart-shaped disclaimers
in pale-grey shades
crazed by booze-infused cupcakes
made up and eaten up
becoming as comfortably numb...
by Suzán Jiván
Fierce feminine fun
trending under
sexy summers
as incredible doubles
on runways
of punchy colors
in manhunts
made up
for tough love
with tugs and suds
like stubborn makeup
and hair plumping
where performance prevails
as all-out telltale fashion
crosshatched with high-status lashes...
by Suzán Jiván
I
Our faves
on different days
embraced
like polished
sting rays
and water snakes
II
As shimmering brocade
at the arcade
with sequined tanks
of rich hydration
III
Infuriatingly
drained away
stripped
of place
in a facial-
recognition plain...
by Suzán Jiván
Whatever it takes
maybe tornados
of twisted debates
with ceilings torn away
like eradicated stages
with erratic backings
of cowering casts
as failures of glass
shattered by attack ads
and super PACS
crashing past
hacked pass
codes of embattlement
denied humanitarian access...

False lettuce
milky sap
deeply cut

V-shaped expanses
masked by cash
like fragmented
greenbacks
in acronyms
for, "Handy-andy"
pulling back
after being tackled
by hand
in a homeland
calling
for far-off
pratfalls
woefully
emblematic
as ghostly pallor...

Beauty snoop

Numerous, noisy and noticeable

Pairs and trios
stiff wingbeats

In your own age
on certain days
seemingly obsequious

when sparring with siblings...

Not just
because
cynics
come
to mock
and remain
to pray
over
dueling
paintings
of nudes
with draperies
in cartoonish
configurations
significantly
appreciating
when chained
to the creator...

Leaping into the air
scampering
with euphoria
tampering
with hoary
hares
in lowlands
ever scarce...
