Vegetal, Animal & Cellular

" Vegetal, Animal & Cellular "

by Suzán Jiván

Vegetal, animal & cellular
intimately reflected
held together
with the eccentricities
of acid-edged
diaristic elements

scrawled across doors
in simple forms
undernourished
and malformed
with ham-handed flare

receding and advancing
as primordial warriors
in granular cores
of smoky quartz

wearing wreaths
of bas-relief
as sly asides
pale and glasslike

in a field of battle
baring
porcelain plaques
explained
by oddly pointless
wall labels
at the end
of a parade
grinding away

getting a remake
that goes without saying
seemingly taking pains
to demonstrate spontaneity

with clean lines of legs
texturally lightweight
and highly unlikely
to stop in a dime

as in pastimes
at double-time
while fireworks ignite...
