" Back to Unlikely "...

" Back to Unlikely "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán

Back to unlikely
by banking
on the familiarity
of built-in
verbal quirks

as the greatest non-hits
of spiced-up hipsters
being comically
topped off with pith-
helmet jingles

culminating in culled
semi-autobiographical bits
with solidly novel lingo
growing into intoxicatingly
cool "First Noel" musicals

while tempos ebb and flow
throughout holy oratorios
heard as uproariously
supportive brios
via modern-leaning harmonies
blanched by melancholic
a cappella calmness
standing starkly apart...
