surreal poetry

The Key Between Stranger Realms - Day Four
On this ordinary morning, there is one peculiarity. I swap my usual cup of espresso for a smoothie because I haven’t been sleeping well lately. I’m eager this’ll help.

The Key Between Stranger Realms - Day Three
On this ordinary morning, 110°F, I’m lost in traffic, daydreaming about swimming in the ocean. A young woman straddles her Schwinn bicycle at the crosswalk nearby. Her appearance is entirely uncoordinated—hyacinth high-tops, striped cargo pants, a black and crimson baseball jersey, and a floral bucket hat. Despite her general disarray, she harbors a determined look on her face. With purpose and the little flashing man, she coasts by, catches my eyes through the windshield.
