“The Surreal Books” by Jonathan Wolstenholme
authors are despots
every book a cruel
tyranny of words
pulling minds with
cunning persuasion
to viewpoints and
falsely built
historiographies
rendered in ripe
propagandas of prose
leaning into desire
for some better ideas
some new answers
to questions that
rise discontented in
unanswered prayers
of a desperate mind
From my book Pieces of Wine
