A small collection of selected infra-real poems by George G. Asztalos, Romanian author of The Second Infra-Realist Manifesto and of the collection of quotes entitled The Hidden Thoughts of Dracula. These poems tell us that the Animal world is more authentic than the Human one because animals do not wear masks when they walk away from home, they are themselves each and every second of their life and do not fake any of their feelings whatsoever. Authenticity and Reality, together with Love are the main characters of this book. Poetry of today suffers of too much bla-bla, obscurity and fiction, so poets must get back to reality and true senses of love and nature, not to dream green horses on the walls. A sort of animal poetry must be recovered from the euphemistic contemporary caged poems and released to the wild. That is what Zoon Poetikon is doing and reading it is a celebration of life and joy!
Halloween Town
Halloween Town
Dead souls walken around
With out a care
A ghoulish thought
Shuffling round
Stiff necked
With gout
Whose is to say
They know how to fool
The innocents
Preyed upon
Watch yourself
Put the
“Eyes of your understanding on”
Staying calm
Or
Acting the part
“Mishigas”
I hear my mother say
So I
Combine the two
With my “eyes of understanding on”
As the bible
Would tell me so
