by Suzán Jiván Mom & Mom-Mom Suzán 

The tiniest bit is no more 

“Think harder! Say it isn’t so!”…

“Hold That Thought”

 “Hold That Thought”

by Suzán Jiván Mom & Mom-Mom Suzán 

Hold that thought 

as a joystick and/or a keyboard

all for red-carpet walkers …

“Good, Bad or Indifferent”

 “Good Bad or Indifferent”

 “Largely in the Shadows”

by Suzán Jiván Mom & Mom-Mom Suzán 

Largely in the shadows of an aftermath

and disembarking into a cobbled tarmac 

in a distant land …

while we have an intimate chat and a flower dance 

being illuminated by a flickering fragrant candle 

as a renewal of an amorous community standard…
