Funeral of a SurrealistSurrealist’s funeral is held in the air,
yet, his coffin is not carried by a supersonic speed plane
flying through the open sky—altitude higher than the stratosphere,
gazing at the sun or a blimp drifting away, in the air, in a leisurely way, looking down upon the...

The Dream Dreamt By a SurrealistLife is not enigmatic but eerie, life lives on
sucking blood though it’s not Count Dracula;
after sundown you won’t see a thing
even if you don’t cover yourself with a black cloak.
In the dark of the early April morning,
however, you’ll see Persephone coming in black...

Surrealist FrescoThe artist’s prime passion
dissolves in the spectrum of colors,
looks for an empty canvas
to flow and make a masterpiece.
Finds inspiration in you
from the rainbow of your heart.
With its shredded chromatic patches
paints a surrealist fresco.

Gravity of a Surrealistarched mirror on the cold stone,
blackglorious dress,
Xoloitzcuintlis at heel.
quiet reflection,
forfeiting Frida’s apparition
beneath her underclothes.
her fate was switched
from doctor to artist
painfully so
she’s pretty with eyes closed,
heavy-petaled headgear.
Diego paints ash on canvas,
surrealist unibrow lifts —
Frida’s suffering relinquished.

AmplifiedWORDS DECRIBED THIS
THEY DID NOTHING TO
DETAIL, WHAT THE EYE
REALLY SEE'S
I POSTURED MYSELF TO REDEFINE
EXPERIENCE
I POSTURED MYSELF TO DESCRIBE
WHAT WAS BEFORE ME
IT MAKES EVERYTHING BEFORE IT'S CREATION
INFERIOR
IT'S ARROWS POINT TO ALL DIRECTION
AND THIS ENCOURAGES ALL TO WANT
WISH AND DISCOVER
FOR THE SAKE OF CREATION
IT FILLS CAVITY'S
AND...

Epithalamium
Never Lose Yer ***** Kida one against all iconoclast
eat my shorts was his hello
after being driven from the village
by the Iceberg Clan physical therapists
and their dictatorship of deduction
a mere fascination with the grotesque
boasting an indignant moral high ground
their vast distortions parading as what's next
none of which was actually observant
ordered...

Warning Contents Under Pressurehave you lost your mind
not that I'm aware of
just another flat penny train wreck
let's survey the blaspheming survivors
an army of gossiping lawn trolls
have been detected in your garden
do you
a. get out of bed
b. run screaming into the night
c. splash a little more gin
into the horn...

Rebel Factiontruth is in fact an unreality
and unattainable
often outrageous and will
make you or your self image crazy
if turned into a fetish
the object being in every case
to avoid compulsion
the future expands infinitely
we know this self evidently
what else do we know self evidently
the rules of self evidence
come...

Abysmally Slow LearnerI don't know about you
but the seeming me abused and cursed
had all my birth fingers burnt off
at the first knuckle before the first lullaby
from too many here hold my beer
blithely eager watch this rolls of the dice
simply to gain a little altitude a little vista
no...

How Is It Sohow is it we look into the future
using only what what bends our fingers
with all the assumptions that keep us
on the daily throttle but less than safe
hidden from each others' true gaze
by acts of will made default by time
in a lost ignored numberless realm
where mysteries...

Daddy's Little FrankensteinA children's rhyme called Little Ponzi
all our emotions are a two edged sword
they can soar or mess things to high treason
apparently playing evil A against evil B
has paid off at the ghetto bookie parlor
taking us all on the zigzag route to tomorrow
because because fields of...

Car Wreck PsychodramaMy YouTube Russian car crash wreckophilia
comes from a bad head on in the family car
near rural Shreveport Louisiana in 1947
when I was a tyke whose favorite berth
was the stowage space behind the back seat
under the wide rear panorama window
of our forest green '42 Chevy...

It's Time For Your EnemaEternal Surprise Productions presents
the It's Time For Your Enema show
bringing news of the day coast to coast
reading every offhand inflection
as though it were a rescue beacon
from the constant din of battle
between intensity and superficiality
being close to utter annihilation
I can recklessly speak these equations
without fear of...
