Twisting the Plot

" Twisting the Plot "

by Suzán Jiván

Performed on YouTube
as, " A Grand Scale "

A grand scale
in wide release
with nothing modest
about being smarter
at the official start
involving
a blond-haired
constable
twisting the plot
Embracing
unashamedly
all in the name
of a peaceful
oasis regained
after betrayal
A mystically
fortified
stultifying
hybrid
witty
but
not
campy
while
waiting
for the chance
for sword
and fantasy
as long
and noisy
like a sort
of born-
again
Cutting
the engine
of lifelong
obsession
too young
to remember
under
our breath
Under
the pretense
of due
diligence
as sung
in select
motets
minus
instruments...
