Ce n'est pas un poème


Smoke and mirrors: The surreal life and work of René Magritte


Lovers kiss,
Heads cloaked in cloth

Faces obscured by apples, birds, sky
World inhabited with slivers of moon, naked breasts, open umbrellas
Miniature steam engine
Surges from a brick fireplace

Man in desert sun,
Ribs replaced by caged mourning doves

Blokes in mackintoshes
Fall from the sky as rain

Human condition,
A bowler hat suspended in blue clouds
