" Laid Up "
by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán
Laid up
like a wax-making lummox
being gobbled up
by an empty bogus stomach
in a round up
of loosely-goosey moods
from superfluous romper rooms
as impromptu proto-matter universes
cut down from kerfuffles
for one-star puzzles
becoming capable of only so-much
suffering plus
self-pitying dithers and cringes
upon being submitted to built-up skills
of "when and ifs"
drawn from phlebotomists' sticks...
