Dada poetry is writing shaped by the Dada movement, which rejected logical meaning, polished style, and traditional artistic rules. It often uses chance, absurd juxtapositions, gibberish, collage, and playful nonsense to challenge the idea that poetry must be orderly or serious. The goal is usually disruption and experimentation rather than a clear message.
Although Dada poetry influenced later surrealist writing, it is distinct in its deliberately anti-rational, anti-establishment spirit.
Example
A teacup parachutes over Tuesday,
while a violin stamps on a receipt;
three cardboard moons applaud the umbrella,
and the alphabet spills its teeth.
