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.
Faster / Brave
There is a camera tracking my every move— not in a daunting or malicious manner, a gift of purpose, the gift of matter. Watch me fold this paper and think of the lens which captures it. Do not be afraid— focus your senses on the movement of my pen. It is an ice skater behind bars— hands glued to iron and feet bruised and bloody. Ah, here the cold sets in. Watch now as my mind skips through puddles of wanting— hands moving faster now— heart moving faster now— faster now.
