Surreal poem |
| Pop-Up Ghosts In the dried up sandy aftermath of a fresh desert storm I lie on a wet blanket of smooth diamond water. I float closer and closer to the smoky wish I see fading into the ebbing hoizon Pop-up ghosts of Beaudelaire and Dowson dance on the edge of this star-dusted skyline I can almost hear their newly composed poems crashing headlong into the approaching waves The words are swimming ferociously toward me As I drift on my blanket of smooth diamond water I am magnetized and pulled into into their eternal vibration The one thought in my mind: How to get them onto my damp paper without the ink running and the words becoming indecipherable |
