" Taking the Reins "
by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán
Taking the reins
setting yellow-
jacket traps
in blueberry patches
"Vive la France!"
dysfunctional branches
being disbanded
captured in orane and black
rather than Union Jacks
raising white flags
across the Atlantic
staging fire sales
feeling wary
"Tag! You're It!"
"Kicking the Can"
in back-to-back
sturm-und-drangs...
