halo themselves
with incandescence
after steadfast
and colorfast pairings
produce male heirs.

" Bigness "

by Suzan Jivan

With little hints
it will stem
measures
to dispel
high levels
of cause-
and-effect
from major
addresses
filled with
diminished
confidence
in the viability
of bigness
combined
with the
lowering
of interest.

between mile-high skyscrapers
and tamped-down atmospheres
from cramped tenement squares.

Takes

by Suzan Jivan

Amazing takes
in innovation
side-by-side
sloe-eyed
dreamlike.

by Suzan Jivan

More single minded
with glinting wit
repeatedly reappearing
from the fog
of an opening sequence
entering freely.

Testy

by Suzan Jivan

Questioning credentials
under increasing pressure
setting up the end game
in a testy pre-election debate.

Sheer

" Sheer "

by Suzan Jivan

A strong hand
seemingly aloof
for a rescue
whose sheer size
was meant to soothe
the huge fiscal issues
fomenting unrelenting
economic distress.
