Like Swordmakers

" Like Sword Makers "

by Suzán Jiván

for Lester Mobley

I

Almost
halo-like
escaping
unscathed
by standing
in the face
of spectators
like sword makers
on a background plane

II


Illusionistically portrayed
and mathematically based
in heightened sensations
of unshakable faith
and irrepressible strength

III


Garnering the same fate
as " The Annunciation "
in a bedchamber
twice as high
as it is wide
like a fore-
shortened
Christ...
