SURREALITY

by Grey Ajurahck   Aug 2, 2007


The bones of a butterfly
lie dripping gossamer flesh
under a newly risen sun
the stark daylight
blinds my brain
and though moving about
functioning in my daily tasks,

I am really unconscious,

the part that is awake
only wants to meander lethargically
into a hazy datdream cognizance, or

at least sleep a sleep where
the dreams are a continuing reality
of the night before,

where the mundane waking hours
are only the vapid dreams
of some other world
lifetimes away,

melting into now.

circa 1992-1998(?)

    So deep poem, you wrote it on a fantastic way. I love the rhythm of it, it is absolutely free but again so impressing. Very emotional piece, you created beautiful atmosphere and topic is interesting. Unique and refreshing, I love it. Well done, you should be proud on it.
