" Now on View "
by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán
Now on view
present by proxy
like light and robots
pinked and polka-dotted
as promisingly as possible
yet still oddly melancholic
like dark postcards
on stark mortared blocks
stacked hollowed columns
of cardboard boxes
and hand-blown glass
with bullwhip tails
startlingly radical brands
of master craftsmen's signed chairs
with autobiographical details
having undergone unsightly repairs
by dazzlingly international casts
from the freshest and the scariest
spindly half-bare branches
of the timelessly tragic
no hints of shabby chic's
scalding transparency
typifying doomed families
prostrate in straight-backed
caned chairs uncannily
gone mad in moral stances
replete with malevolent stares...
