Pelican Alleyways
lopsided mist, opportunities around the corner
down ferry the new
track awaits, a shifting rail
by rivers and seas
opulent mist a pragmatic sensation
two obstacles with horrible features so mad that
mathematical equations define my smile
can it get any worse with more certainty
lopsided, swift and, true the arrow lands on the bend
Pierce!
hit harder than the hands I missed
eyes water
juniper trees and khaki leaves
hit me into the sense, petal gleams, please
Rainforest concurrence, opulent metal sheets for the
drops, calculated in precision
swift, missed kitchens no food for the gingerbread
man. where can I go
three emphatic gestures
stay low watch arrival
how did it get so high from here
the rain occurrence in opulence, most sense
a problem in the valley,
pelicans trapped in alleyways,
rubber ghouls and standing ovations
mark on the middle of the apple pie
hurry, I slave over
a problem I pursued, I never behaved.
sheathes for no swords, thoughts with no masters
drip me in your crystal glow let me see
The words locked in caves
colors i cannot
perceive,
bathe
or know
About the Creator

After getting diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disease at the age of fifteen, forcing me out of school and uprooting my life, I spent the majority of the next five years in bed. There, I found writing, and my own style of surreal poetry.
