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.
Tales of Loss and Longing
Previously I said I was going to post these in batches of 3, but seeing how there are 31 days in the month, I have to squeeze in a fourth poem somewhere. It seemed fitting for this batch's theme. Also, check out pt. 1 of my Inktober turned Poetober thread if you haven't had the chance yet. Thanks for reading!

Subtle moment
The sound of cars noisiness of people passing by Above all the non tangibles phrases of our molecule we have allowed the opening to a limitless experiences of where we can walk through whenever we want to this space is a great shelter to where we can exist and escape to actually really live .

Jonesing for CoCo’s Curry
They say, whoever they is, that scent is the sense most keenly attuned to memory.I ambled by a group of Japanese exchange students--I pace the halls, just thinking and floating, absorbing and avoiding, hiding in plain sight, if you will. The students smelled like my rides to Tokyo, on the JR or Keikyu lines. Or to Yokohama. Or home from my long hours of Service. I wonder how I smelled to them? Like a shipyard? Like recirculated air? The exchange students revive memories of short jaunts to the 100 yen sushi-go-round from my Uraga apartment overlooking Tokyo Harbor and not too far from where Admiral Perry first landed in Japan. How Time and history absorb all things. How colossal we are. Yet still infinitesimal. We are the dichotomy of everything and nothing. We know this. And can’t get beyond the confines of our own selfish being. I am reminded of Sake, and CoCo’s Curry. Red Door Ramen Shop—sadly now permanently closed—shoyu Ramen with gyoza. Soy sauce for dipping. I should move back. I should be a baka gaijin and reopen “Red Door” as it was. Some things should endure.
