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.
Truth escaped
(This was my entry for the eclipse contest a few weeks back; because I screenshot the poem from Word, the resulting jpg didn't count as individual words and sadly didn't count. Concrete poetry is difficult to replicate on this platform although I think Vocal is working on a solution. However, concrete poetry is very hard to replicate through AI, and so I thought the shape in addition to the acrostic element would stand out as different. AI has been infesting many writing platforms, school assignments, and social media that it alarms me that some might use AI to create original pieces.)

Beneath the Moon and Stars
Beneath the celestial tapestry, entwined in the silver glow of the moon, our hearts dance to the silent melody of the night. The stars, witnesses to our fervent whispers, twinkle with secrets of a forbidden love. In the quietude, our souls speak a language older than time, a symphony of longing that defies the dawn. Though the world may not understand, in this moment, we are nothing but two spirits, lost in the labyrinth of desire, where right and wrong blur into the shadows of passion. And as the night deepens, so does the enigma of us—a love wrapped in the mystery of the cosmos, burning ever so brightly against the canvas of the universe.
