		Poetry, the art of creating poems, also known as verse, may be defined in opposition to prose, which is language which is meant to convey meaning, with lesser emphasis on mood, word choice, and exact form of expression.
		Poetry is as old as human speech and is a compressed form of speech (and song) in an imaginative manner that at its best evokes and releases human emotions and intuition.
		Also, the vocabulary of poetry tends to be larger and more obscure than that of prose, because poets are apt to take greater liberties with the language and to retain old words and invent new words in order to express themselves within the structure of their poetry.

		During the late 19th century, at the height of popular interest in the phenomenon, inspiration for automatic writing was generally attributed to external or supernatural forces.
		Modern psychodynamic theories of personality propose that traits, attitudes, motives, impulses, and memories that are incompatible with the person's conscious awareness may be dissociated from awareness and rarely expressed overtly in the course of normal waking behaviour.

	Some Rants and Notes about Automatic Poetic Practices in the 21st Century
		With automatism, or automatic writing, in particular, the goal is not “therapy” or any kind of mysticism (religious or otherwise), but a liberation of thought, as it is written down word by word as quickly as possible.
		For this reason, automatic writing (and other forms of automatism, such as the visual kind) is highly prized by surrealists as a technique of liberating the human psyche when it is temporarily visible in its nakedness, without the interference from moral or rationalistic filters.
		The alienation of poetry (whose alienation is maintained, in part, by the social sciences and their unspoken code of Normality, in response to the demands of money) represents an alienation from the human experience, and ultimately an alienation from “life,” as all of us would idealize it.

	Spurious: April 2004
		Surrealist poetry is a poetry of freedom, of spontaneity, of automatism.
		Inspired, automatic writing is also critical; if it appears uncommitted this is only because it is belongs to another order of commitment, because it burns like a star which has consumed everything but itself; it is total, absolute.
		But if any man comes to the gates of poetry without the madness of the Muses, persuaded that skill alone (techne) will make him a good poet, then shall he and his works of sanity with him be brought to nought by the poetry of madness, and behold, their place is nowhere to be found.

	Contemporary Surrealism and the surrealist movement @ www.surrealcoconut.com
		One of the advantages of automatic writing is that it has the interesting property of dissolving the various artificial barriers erected within the human psyche, tending to address the various alienations created by our terribly advanced society.
		The same could be said for those who are looking for the popular, logically elaborated stories and novels that have a "beginning, middle and end." Automatic writing isn't about any of that, and with any kind of automatism, there is no planned or predictable outcome.
		Analogously, all of the "new-age" writers of the present moment, who claim to be surrealist, do not even bother with automatic writing techniques [for them, it's as if 1) automatic writing never existed, or sometimes 2) automatic writing is thought of only as an exotic spew of words, a fetish].
