Watching the Aforementioned

" Watching the Aforementioned "

by Suzán Jiván

Watching the aforementioned
seesawing between
bigness and intimacy
in a life-sized silent movie

with a smattering
of computer graphics
while making room
for the future
of taxidermy

with few gaps
of channeling
chills up my spine
with a gentleman in profile
like an abolitionist
in stained white marble archives

etched in vintage firm cursive
with a notable churn
not yet determined
by early research
on countless
stenciled barrels
of unparalleled
sour mash...
