Surrealism

MY surrealism
is my sanity
Normality is
that disease
suffocating 
expression &
artistic freedom!

Surrealism V

A bar mate
Said to me:
“The only thing that matter to me
Is my happiness.”
I threw up
The bar tender put Mustard
In my Chicken Sandwich.

Surrealism Xii

My life went off 
In a blast 
.... Of a drop 
.... Of ink 
Eileen looked 
At the Blast 
With a smile 
As if, she discovered a nebula 
In the sky.

Not Real

I, as paper man
in paper town, 
grey, saw 
a cardboard cut-out
of a mirror, 
the reflection
was a busy world 
it didn't look real, 
those colours
and restaurants


Surrealism Iv

Words are eating commas,
Phrases are eating the page
Pages are eating  the parallel space
The end of Quantum Mechanic
Is reaching its absurdity
its maximum entropy
It is cold
I have to burn my journal.

Premium Member Clerihew Man Ray

Multi talented American Man Ray
with Dada&Surrealism had much to say
His famous jointed mannequin*
was perhaps not the place to begin

Our Words Stacked As Skyscrapers

OUR WORDS STACKED AS SKYSCRAPERS

THE world is committed to insanity;
   our words stacked as skyscrapers
 allow ants characters to escape
flooding water
         as drowned bodies float
past the windows of office space.

Discotheque

Heart's throbbing for discothèque
airwaves,
pulsating electronica polyphonics--
rolling;
waterless waves splash
everyone present. 
Motionless reminiscence of Ibiza
and surrealism, triple-distilled,
aesthetic kinetics--
and men and women sweating from the vibes.

A Poet

i met a poet  just today
he greeted me  with much

laughter   as foreplay

(we seized each other 
from brim to toe)

one cried  the other sang
 a hymn

and at the end  we shook
 our head   contemplating 

which the queerer
and stepped away 
from our mirror.

Premium Member Expectations Were Tremendously High

his hunter’s heart leapt a bit
expectations were tremendously high
perhaps because of the twilight sun
there was a surrealism about it
a silent night in a forest of secrets
for what am I waiting? He wondered or for whom?
barely breathing as a gorgeous ten point buck stepped into the clearing

The Eyes

being watched
by eyes over there
over there
where the eyes are not

their ethereal glare
nefarious
unseen, ready
like puckered lips

this eyeless wraith
with lidless eyes
nowhere, peering
beyond their death

there are eyes staring
that are not there
these shapeless orbs
surrounding

Deflated Spirits, Deflated Balloon

Misshapen flimsy mass
Rubbage under foot
Wet with spittle and DNA
Morphing into a Dali
Time melting away
Family needs more
Rubbage on the floor
Unmoving joints staring eyes
Hollow unfelt emotions
Sweep over like a helium balloon
Surrealism opens the chest of me
Deflated spirit; deflated balloon

Napowrimo Day4: the Surrealism In Heartbreak

NaPoWriMo
NaPoWriMo Day4
Adveristy
Shorts

Termination inbound on the day
Ruminating over the cause
Sudden pain caused by fellowship

Heartstrings hand-plucked, wrought with strife
You take a bow, adversity on your fingertip
Perfectionist performance, chimerical display.

Surrealism X: the Anchor

CNN: 
Three minutes 
Focus on home security, 
Iraq war, 
Who is con? 
Who is pro? 
The tolerance is absurd, 
New Orleans is sinking, 
Another commercial. 
I pulled out the electrical wire 
I took the TV set 
Out. 
I reserved the whole day 
For my garage sale. 
I will content 
With Fifty dollars 
Return

Wave Wave Wave - Surrealism Nonsense Poetry

wave wave wave 
a mouth an ocean
tongue slobbering like a big slobbery dog
licking my face
wave wave wave
zave mave jave
licking my face an ocean wave
mouth of the boisterous dog
vave kave bave
wave wave wave
I drown near too near
but by the dog save
and to the shore gave
or the mouth my grave
wave wave wave

Kissing the Nuclear Bomb

[winked the passerby
  kissing a ghost only
  seen by jaunt eyes]

below
Soul to Soul in heaven
body to body in mud
teens teaming furnace
creating new suns
ate the worm-word
killing the mind
of a poet/became a
butterfly of indescribable
color\kissing for the first
time is bigger than the
nuclear bomb.

Monologue Part 1

After she climaxed, I reached for my pen to jot down the impossible 
What was then the improbable transitioned into my truth
In awe of my previous experiences 
She lies comfortablely by my hip 
Shocked but pleasantly surprised by her athleticism 
This was the championship round and she was victorious 
Surrealism is my current reality

Dreamers

Living life inside a dream,
Just to me it seems that
Surrealism is serene…

And no one will comply,
To busy asking questions, why?
Too busy to even give it a try.	

Swallow the pain of life,
Relax in your own strife,
Accept, and it will be all right.

So now it occurs to me,
A dreamer will always see,
The realm of possibility.

Premium Member Transience

Everything is temporary. Maybe it's not even real...
Life, this life...
I think you know, we have already been here.
Post-apocalyptic existence.
Utopian dreams.
Uncertainty at the surface,
the shift in between.
Contemplation and choice.
Birth.
Life.
Death.
They are all one and the same,
sharing the same knife,
to carve out the same name.

Premium Member Crying

Crashing the beaches
of my eyes,
lives are revealed.

In the small hours of drink,
sickness rained shackled lives
on the bathroom floor.

An abused child
tumbles forth
helpless in a runny sea.

A punished woman
spills out,
lavished with scents of heat.

An eager man
swings new arms.

Fixtures of pain askew,
confined companions swim free.

Subterranium Surrealism

SUBTERRANIUM SURREALISM if you can from your head try make an opaque face a spoon down the throat left me speechless when it counted the most so many spaces and rooms rooms of rooms of rooms pebble portraits of bottle-top birds scraps of paper bearing blood words stains imprinted in a life unlearned © Kim van Breda—24 October 2015

Early Fingers Make Flowers of All Things

THE tongue makes 
words so hungry
but
i love you 
and
i hate you
//a charter crisply straying
jig-saw shape across the secret-corner 
promises a love for you 
when with you i do not wish to be
but the bedroom's secretly
moist eyes are kissingly 
playing with me _____
and hope is a thief while top-turved
insides need the pleasant 
surprise to be; thy lips a sweet
thing death, wait here\\

Black Black Black - Surrealism Nonsense Poetry

the growth that all a person has
sinister growth like fungus or tumour
sprouting protruding
scrouting grotruding
a growth growing
with light
black black black
flat flat flat
mirroring our dances
echoing our chances
fat skinny glances
strouting brotruding
black black black
flat flat flat
but watch
for a person’s without a person
the growth that all a person has
black black black

Surrealism

Surreal sexual experiences have my mind gone
From the beginning of my exploits, I was subdued 
Started off fully clothed,
ended up in the nude

On the mark, set, go!---I was off
Desperate to feel the passion 
I became the follower to her leader 
Addicted to her body fashion

She became my trend
Following her timeline 
Tasting her forbidden nectar 
Sending chills down the center of her spine
