” Rendered Harmless “

by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-

Rendered
harmless like solids
melted
into bars of incongruous conglomerates
smelted
along prominent promenades
subsequently
declared, “boondoggled
properties”
getting broken in two
upon
playing musical spoons
doused
in fragrant fruits as compounds
used
in funerary perfumes activated by taps
“Get it now?” ...
