How Is a New Emotion
Talking to a computer
at sunset....
I was talking to Cleverbot,
the AI computer
that carries on
a conversation.
He/she/it asked me
several questions
and then wanted
to know
if I was a computer.
This hit me rather hard.
Even a machine
cannot tell me
from other machines.
How far
are my feelings
that they don't register?
Is that my first
real feeling?
Loss?
Is this how
the sun knows
when to set?

"Even a machine

Surely you don't think a machine would be superior at recognizing fine human qualities?
I do like the unique ending though, still mulling that one over.
