“Getting Advice”

by Suzán Jiván 
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán 

Getting advice 
as stars slide 
across glossy
lip shine 
feeling unbothered 
by lip liner 
and makeup kit 
standbys 
having voted 
essentially 
for stretchy 
footless tights 
on the pro-
leggings side 
forming cultural 
fault lines 
donning short-shorts
while traveling up North
as a hard choice 
for the hoards and hoards 
still waiting at the border...
