Its leader - Go!
She wanted place. The predator makes and no lands ensue.
Freedom roars.
By her guess then another motorcycle -
Road den.
She, everyday, took content.
Wherever it listens,
Its heart -
There! Off rebellious, streak a best.
Partner, snowy struggle.
A lover and the blue scuffle.
Its heart.
A heart hands there, its now liking.
To rest, it would without.
Its patrols end, frozen.
The friend took it to its side.
Icy Wall, fly!
'Rot Fahrer!', she decrees.
A/N: Gosh. I missed writing poems. I've been so swamped with promoting my new book and other real life responsibilities that I haven't had the time to sit down and write for fun. But here's another poem written through a machine's optics!
This poem, upon first glance, doesn't seem to make any sense and appears chaotic. But that comes with the territory when one writes a Dadaism poem! Dadaism is an art movement that was developed in the early 20th century over the pond (and in some places in the US) as a reaction to the first World War. The art movement spanned media of the many species, from collages to sculpture to poetry to cut-up writing. Pieces usually focused on nonsensical and irrational subject matter and could range from discontent towards violence and war to politics and other subject matter.
This poem is my attempt to write something in a cut-up style. That is, you take some text from any literary source, 'cut out' the words, mix them all up together and by subconscious thought, you can create random poems told without reason or rhyme.
I was having a hard time trying to write something and thought that by attempting this format, I could not only shake off the mind cobwebs, but I can also explore another new poetry form.
This takes place during 'Convict Allies' through the eyes of a land vehicle and a certain redhead of chaos. I won't explain any more than that and will leave it open to interpretation. Enjoy! Also, happy summer season! :)

-'Rot Fahrer' means 'Red Driver' in German, a nod to a headcanon I've come to accept about our gal - she was involved with a German biker gang before she met Henry and thus, knows how to speak German. If this translation in German is off by any means, please let me know!
