surreal poetry

Surrealist poetry embodies the essence of poetry itself, drawing upon shocking imagery and lyrical incongruities to comment on the inner-workings of the mind.

The bleeding beetroot
Wandering around the fortress that is my house. I’m hunting. Hunting for a sweet release from this junk appetite craving. Though I don’t need to do this adventure I believe I will arrive to a moment of great joy. Those pockets of joys unload overall joys which sounds ultimately appetising. I hope I earn money from this I think as I type this because money can buy me more food. Food is something I’ve struggled to attain at moments of my Student University life adventure so food is a wonderful concept in my world. Heck anyone’s WOLRd.

I am just an Idea
I am a whisper in time A breathe on the wind Not quite a dream But not quite a reality I am the blink of an eye Time moving slow, fast

Last Drags
I lay here, in the crack of the pavement, waiting. People pass by above me, none taking the time to glance down and notice me. The wind blows and a few freezing drops moisten my paper wrapping.

a THING
oof n’goop : conglomerate-entity-blob. plopping i want to push it out, birthing impossibility -- an extraction, dissection, plucking with tweezers, the exactness of a ginormous THING. right from organs/intestines/inner-goo, dripping drop-by-drip dissolvable-powered stomach acid, emanating ripe rancid smells smoke stank gaseous liquids solids, radioactive with privacy: personal, embarrassing body-gloop.

A Cure to Misgivings
Empathy shines through bleak ignorance. Footsteps once forgotten echo in the cave. Sounds, like words, bounce from wall to wall of the cranium

Water Borne
Life becomes so simple when ignored This protest of a presence Presents itself bored Meaning hollowed Too much energy borrowed

It Began With a Story
It began with a story. It always began with a story. Whether it was a comedy in which the jokes made no sense, or a drama that pressured its audiences to cry alongside its actors;

Convenient Rhymes
I don’t know how to do anything. How to read, how to watch television, or even how to sleep. All I seem able to do is lie uncomfortably in a bed kicking off sheets and socks and thrashing at the heat. My brain is sorting ideas and thirsting for images to absorb and words to combine into thoughts. But it’s boring. How? Why?

Memory
Forgiveness, it is said, is a healer. there is no action that comes to mind, beyond distance. hours could be lost in what I watched you do.
