Reality vs. Surrealism
October 19, 2008
The furry black and white static of a broken t.v., un-
defined. Coloring miles outside the lines
questions and confusion choke me like smoke.
Will this boundary always be smudged-
a melting blur?
My eyes shut and conjured is a purple
whirlpool. Eyes
open, balmy film of light overtakes me
but the whirlpool will not fade or sub-
due even the slightest bit. Suddenly
I slip, the waves of quicksand envelope me. I
look for the horizon, that find dividing line.
Solid rock greets my feet. I
survive.
