From Dada Poetry Generator:



Thanks to [info]riesiel, I found a new toy to play with! Although I'm not really a huge fan of Dada, it was interesting to see certain phrases the generator has put together. I'm surprised that it spat out something coherent every few lines!

So, I lifted a few of my favorite phrases from the generator. These phrases came from a few of my very old poems (5 total), which helped me come up with this poem (please see below). I have to admit that I tweaked the grammar and syntax a bit so as to make the poem flow better, and I've added a few new words here and there. Enjoy! (I'm still in the process of moving all of my old poems on here. Now THAT will take me a looooong time.)



Dada Lines from Dreams

the chatter lines understand no detour
while the soul's muteness signals that time
in chaotic whistles bloom sweet scents
like how trees feather in chaotic scents
and rhythmic snores from daydreams
during winter.

once,
stardust brought back home love
to me from the driveway of daydreams
to which the unlocked soul took in moments
of you, love,
when I told you of life
into flight at the end
of the road--no detour
but sweet scents to follow
to build sense and sensibility
and not just castles in the sky.

but now,
it is the end of a quest
when fulfillment of belonging
is the longing end one finds in oneself
when scents and signals and snores
are slicing rays and green pastures with time,
slicing emptiness to scatter the wind,
wrinkling in time,
to look inside the eye of the soul-storm
like toying with the evening
with confetti of clouds and feathered trees rustling,
shifting sensibilities.

and then together
at the fork of the road,
we find a starless warmth amongst time
during the evening of belonging
engulfing cloudy souls, melting winds and frowns,
our smiles toying under mistletoes,
those chatter lines have now taken this detour
of these windless dreams being actualized
under the winter love-sky.
