Absurdum Poems | Examples


Premium MemberNostalgia ad Absurdum

   Remember the paperless office
     How ‘bout the flying car
   And back in the days of the Jetsons
     we all thought we’d be living on Mars

   Well, now it’s the stampede against coal
     not to mention the war against oil
   Not to worry, AI will fix everything...
     To make a living ~
                       we won’t have to toil

Two Stars on the Circle
is Putin then dining with Merkle?
reducto absurdum
so will say Thomas who's only just heard 'em.

Mystic Tampering.

Some ancient wisdom
Doth behold; a parabolic
To unfold. Mathematics to 
Delight ; resemble crescent 
Moon at night! The alchemy
In this I see; a medieval
Fantasy . Behold the dragons
Tooth and claw; from it, 
Power I will draw. Mystic
Names are writ in clay; and
Swept away before the 
Day. Squalid squawks that
Screech the sky; bring chills
Into the heart that lies. 
Fingers bony, nails that
Split; do stir the cauldron
With some spit. “Hail my 
Demon, come to me”; if 
You indulge my fancy free!
Thus I challenge, this bleak
World; what’s real I order
Inward curl. Tumble down
And thus reform; a universe 
“Reductio ad Absurdum “
Is reborn!
