“Alone Behind Windows”

 “Alone Behind Windows”

by Suzán Jiván Mom

& Mom-Mom Suzán 

Alone behind windows 

suns coming up 

zooms going down

shadows traveling 

as symbolic values 

of undulating patterns

kindling imagination 

colored mosaics

stained glass 

within and without 

symmetry clarity 

statued door jambs…

“Might Almost”

 “Might Almost”

by Suzán Jiván Mom

& Mom-Mom Suzán 

Might almost

be mistaken 

as a great strength 

made up of three-

dimensional shapes 

towards unfolding narrations 

stacked in chronological layers 

culminating in countless ways

bearing weight as sacred 

traceries in lace …

“Under the Impact”

 “Under the Impact”

by Suzán Jiván Mom

& Mom-Mom Suzán 

Under the impact of escapes from reality 

solidly and matter-of-factly likened to parables 

as understandable familiar actualities

foreshortened on a flickering flat screen

portraying on-the-spot immediacy…

“It’s Only Fitting”

 “It’s Only Fitting”

by Suzán Jiván Mom

& Mom-Mom Suzán 

It’s only fitting across the dimensions

of time giving way to an eternal present

as the celestial translucency of heaven’s

ceremonial gestures are portrayed 

within earthly spiritual spaces 

in the form of a nave flanked by an arcade …

“Never Ceasing”

 “Never Ceasing”

by Suzán Jiván Mom

& Mom-Mom Suzán 

Never ceasing to amaze

breathtaking domes colonnades 

heavy plainness barrel shapes 

huge roofed spaces 

remaining faithful to the present day 

opulent arches resting on columns 

as well as permanent embodiments 

of life-sized busted likenesses 

carved as passions of the mind …

“Poised and Confident”

“Poised and Confident”

by Suzán Jiván Mom & Mom-Mom Suzán 

Poised and confident 

incidentally anti-monumental 

as a precisely rendered 

commanding presence 

delicate slenderness 

unique elegance…

 

“Lending Ethereality”

 “Lending Ethereality”

by Suzán Jiván Mom & Mom-Mom Suzán 

Lending ethereality to an amazing array

of grays sweeping across printed paper

among creative protégés 

brooding ghostlike heightened 

primarily by black and whites 

still remaining true to life …
