Surreal; Dada; Nonsense; Abstract; Opposing and Contradictory Poetry: Be Brave!
Prose has always appeared unresponsive and close-minded about Abstract and Surrealism when it comes to Poetry and Prose and even story lines. Take a chance and dip your toe in a world that doesn't make sense. Think the automatic cut-up writing of William S. Burroughs or the nonsensical natural whimsy of Captain Beefheart if you need inspiration. The most bizarre wins more then anything money could buy. They'll have won versatility and a key to the 'promise land'.
Triscuit in Stream of Consciousness

The Copper Promise

During your flight into the land of free

look to find the sight of me

as I stand tall for you to see

Trust in My light, a beacons plea,

In the New York night, as a symbol of eternity

the light that shines showing way to liberty and opportunity.

I Liberty, stand for freedom and opportunity,

to all those in desperate need.

Trust in my crown for all are welcome,

those who flew the seven seas,

those escaping disease,

those seeking refuge,

those who are on the verge of dreams anew,

the land of freedom will always be open to you.

Is what I wish I could say to you

In the land of free, where dreams were meant to be, I once was a sign of simplicity,

for those coming with different ethnicity

I Liberty, stand for freedom and opportunity,

to all those in desperate need.

A promise from me,

A copper lady within the sea.

Not held true, by the means of the machines

hiding behind the scenes of greed.

Complications and manipulation,

Language varies and multicolored cherries

Why does one cherry bask in the sun so bright,

And the other be burdened with hates cruel bite,

I Liberty, Once, Stood for freedom and opportunity,

to all those in desperate need,
