3rd person omniscient surrealist poem
that I walk into as a Romantic
by Ryan Gallagher
This stirs up a bug fight. Iris walks in
alone and walks out. Sarah gets so mad
she freaks out and starts fucking strangers.
Fantastic says Sarah and electric
filaments fuzz up the static night-
time – it – gets – slower and then
picks up I pick up three pennies
and a nickel for every thought I had
I am a clown I am a Russian
clown who is spinning and takes
a bag of money and starts to run
and runs faster I freak
out and wipe my face with
an elephant ear can you hear
me I am writing I am human
on a piece of paper and sighing color
