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.
Songs Of The Sea
Sonnet 60 (My Translation) Like waves move toward the pebbled shore, our lives make way to their end, each minute changing places with the ones before, trying to move forward and with success. Everything born now and before, once swam in an ocean of light before birth and they work their way up the shores to maturity, fighting obstacles to their glory. But Time which gives everything to all, destroys that gift. Time takes the beauty of youth, making wrinkles in beauty's forehead. Time consumes the scarcity of nature's truth. There is nothing in existence that time won't mow with its scythe. Yet my versus will last forever, praising your worth and beauty despite Time's savage hand.

HERE'S THE SITUATION
Here's the situation. A train arrives at the platform to take people to their stations, where they station themselves at their desks in hopes of compensation. "Why do we do this to ourselves?" Each asked themselves in mutual adulation, knowing that in the end tokens for their time will be rewarded to them for pleasant jubilations. Or so they thought. "Times are tough." One frowned to another while the train pulled into the station; another nodded in agreement, with a sigh and a huff of mutual frustration. "At least the sun is out." Someone interjected as they stepped onto the train with seats as blue as the sky they walked away from.
