Everyday objects so deadpan
its here surrealism began

Brussel's surreal Rene Magritte
whose art some think rather neat
His painting* is a bit of a lark
so often deadpan&stark

Renee Magritte,an enigma in a bowler hat
I wonder what we should make of thst

he never said so we'll never know

(Based on the painting “The Treachery of Images” by René Magritte)
If you label symbols traitors
Since they’re only indicators
Rather than the actual things they signify,
Then you’re logically unable
To affirm your very label
Is a truth and not a metaphoric lie.

green apples are time-bound
illusions, handcuffs to an ancient
art; we share a common
ancestor, out on a limb
the butterfly doesn't know the scent
of ripe papaya or that orchids
hang loosely from a primordial sky, we live between
this taste swirling in our mouths, hungering
for kisses that bring us to our knees,
our shadows breathe and the
landscape changes, plastic bubbles and
empires of light,
wondering which pieces of us fit together,
the two of us standing close enough,
muslin sheets covering our faces,
delusions of grandeur.
