" A Latter Day "...

" A Latter Day "

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-

A latter day
on behalf
of tattered
family fabrics

while championing
love's multiple meanings
as healing over the years

like grainy clips
appearing feverishly
along with prophetic
hand-wringings

drawing fervent
followings on
simulating
bombs dropping

under the cover
of darkness
beneath
shooting stars

dragging
on and on
via forensic
photography
post tsunami

flowing
farther
and
farther
as
intolerant
hypocrisies

receding graphically
revealing flourishings
of rejuvenative greenery

being formed
into door wreaths
of redemptive perpetuity
familially cheering,
"Hear! Hear!"...
