Literary Feature | Dustin Cole | Part 1

The Cheaper Show is excited to have Dustin Cole contribute some of his writings to our blog. This is the first in a series of three poems.

DUSK WITH SUN

Two men go for a walk
    at dusk
Both are painters
One is a Landscape-Surrealist
One is a Superrealist

They both get along
Talk about women

Suddenly,
A slash of sunlight plunges down      (in a red dusk)
From a froth of violet clouds

It warms the face
And shins           (both are wearing shorts)
Of each man

The Superrealist, alarmed, says
What’s going on? it’s dusk.
The Landscape-Surrealist, pleased, smiles broadly,
Replies :
Dusk with sun
