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.
Sleepless
The solitude of night solemnly grabbed me by the hand, and yanked me from my slumber. I half expected sunlight to pierce through the window, but a bleak blue filled my room, instead. Tempting as it was to fall back asleep in the arms of darkness, those exhausting thoughts in the early dawn - the pestering song of silence - held a wanderer in a place of wanting. Wanting sleep. Wanting dreams. Wanting rest. Wanting.
