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.
Different Tides
Last night I slept with you. I took a bath in your waters of passion, i swore you were good to me. your eyes below my waist I swear tonight will be one hell of a ride & though I know streams come and go with the only split residue lingering in between your lips reminding you that no matter how many flavors you've tasted, some how yours will remain my favorite.

Drowning and What It Can Do
I've always considered drowning to be the worst way you could die, but I've come to see it in a different perspective. I've been told that when you're drowning, your body activates the mammalian diving reflex, which shunts as much blood from your extremities as possible and sends it to your heart and brain. Because of the lack of carbon dioxide, you involuntarily draw in breath, causing your lungs to fill with water. But when they do, your throat spasms to try and seal your airways to your lungs. And when water replaces oxygen, your body would begin to black out, and you'll become unconscious, and you will die soon after.
