Burst of Creativity
Burst of creativity
Catch it it runs fast
Before you know
It goes in a moment of distraction
Before you know burst of creativity is gone
And you scream and look at your phone
Should’ve wrote this down for my history
Hovers just above your thoughts
When it comes down have to figure it out
Old school pen but digital paper I shudder
To think what I’ll do if IPhone notes and
Voice memos disappear in the cloud
Catch it it runs fast
Before you know
It goes in a moment of distraction
Before you know burst of creativity is gone
And you scream and look at your phone
Should’ve wrote this down for my history
Hovers just above your thoughts
When it comes down have to figure it out
Old school pen but digital paper I shudder
To think what I’ll do if IPhone notes and
Voice memos disappear in the cloud

You Won't Believe What We Saw On The Road
We saw a naked chick.
She's letting some biker dude hump her.
That Harley was still moving.

lap.top
I touch you to wake you up
Keep you up
As your screen times out
Your touchscreen is dirty so I clean it
Touch-clean tough screens
I keep you awake
Power saving mode turns off as I plug you in
Please just stay awake
Your webcam eyes lull and skip frames
The definition of a living thing is one that responds to stimuli
As I press buttons and click your facial-recognition features
You react to my stimulation
But I want you to know this is not a simulation
Keep you up
As your screen times out
Your touchscreen is dirty so I clean it
Touch-clean tough screens
I keep you awake
Power saving mode turns off as I plug you in
Please just stay awake
Your webcam eyes lull and skip frames
The definition of a living thing is one that responds to stimuli
As I press buttons and click your facial-recognition features
You react to my stimulation
But I want you to know this is not a simulation

Echoes
Bestirred by a radio app today,
reiterating the infamy date,
I recollected what my dad would say
about how that war affected our fate.
Sick, he had stayed home from Sunday school
where thusly by a broadcast he had heard
of the sneak attack on Yankee rule
and the international afterword...
which in a few short years saw him training
with artillery to use on Japan
when their empire was at last waning
along with their co-prosperity plan...
but Russian threats, and the atomic bomb,
had his odds increase for troth...

In Front of Us
Melding metal 400000
Putting a bearing on smooth rails
Precision sailing through Panama Canal
Brush the mirror into completion
Possessive in me 200 inch disk
5 tons of glass 2 millionths of an inch perfection
Pause before barbarity task of polishing
Job is done on Mount Palomar telescoping me
Saw the life and death of stars I’m one of them
Capabilities within you it amazes me
Hubb has seen 12 billion light years in front of us
Putting a bearing on smooth rails
Precision sailing through Panama Canal
Brush the mirror into completion
Possessive in me 200 inch disk
5 tons of glass 2 millionths of an inch perfection
Pause before barbarity task of polishing
Job is done on Mount Palomar telescoping me
Saw the life and death of stars I’m one of them
Capabilities within you it amazes me
Hubb has seen 12 billion light years in front of us

Data
Sell my data worth billions
Not paying for anything on your platform
Thought about buying something to check my heart out
I get a deal only 79 dollars
Think about what I’m doing
Paying them money while they get the data
That they’ll turn around to spin Billions
Social media should pay all of us
We influence what ads we see
Why do they reap all the money
When we supply all the data
Making Billions off of our thoughts
Building bunkers in Hawaii
Why...

Drowning In A Daylight Nightmare
Where are we heading
Human nature helplessly wondering
Mother Nature hopefully warning..
A submerged universe
By a torrent of floods curse
What is coming hope not worse..
A world of less and less meaning
For all those on the surface floating
Solid grounds nolonger touching..
To what is occurring inside unaware
Unable to see the gloom and void in the air
Drowning in a daylight nightmare..
Trapped in a web of wealth and profusion
Full to the brim the sight in confusion
Bathing in...
Human nature helplessly wondering
Mother Nature hopefully warning..
A submerged universe
By a torrent of floods curse
What is coming hope not worse..
A world of less and less meaning
For all those on the surface floating
Solid grounds nolonger touching..
To what is occurring inside unaware
Unable to see the gloom and void in the air
Drowning in a daylight nightmare..
Trapped in a web of wealth and profusion
Full to the brim the sight in confusion

Methinks that when it emulates man
artificial intelligence...can...
tabulate wrongs and rights
in navel gazing bytes...
then assist the shit to hit the fan!

The Beauty of the Mystery
They just laughed and said ‘what use little rhymes in the face of cold dust erupting,
What will your words achieve when our machines blister skin’?
‘Nothing’, I say, ‘nothing will be achieved if you’re taking domination as your measure.
All I can do is hold on to the beauty of the mystery.’
‘Look at you, an empty container, grasping and gasping, as the beast finds its feet,
How will holding hands advance the project we’ll soon complete?’
‘It won’t’, I say, ‘but some things trip monsters even when they stomp,
That’s how we reach for the mystery of the...

I was sent an email by the tooth fairy
First off,
the audacity
of receiving such
an email around
three a.m. in the
morning
saying they take
my oral health
pretty seriously,
they don't wish
my mouth to end
up bleeding, as it
could be signs
of gum disease
they state proudly
in letters, bolded
and coloured in
red trying to
coerce me,
they continue on
warning me about
running the risks
of tooth decay
as I sit here
thinking about
all the shit I never ...

Disconnected
Disconnected
Disconnected but searching for something
You’re in the car electric driving home not a tesla
Hear the phone look down but its almost empty
Lift the console look for my plug i cant find it
In a car not made of combustion im searching
Find the cord the lifeline we all the sudden seem to need
Plug it in my cars wheels slow down im coasting
Seems technology isn’t all its made to be so i
Lift the handle release the latch but the doors lock
Screaming down the Autobahn...

Clockwork Bard
Line by line and writ by writ
Creativity from rotating gears?
Forged thoughts together knit
Man or machine they fear
No such thing as auto masters
Nay no spark from the soul
Sure it writes faster and faster
But my mastery is mine to control
Challenge automaton work
But words here are of flesh and bone
Homunculi writers are stuck with a dirk
Blood flows here as creativity is enthroned
No punch cards or binary brains
To say otherwise is a misguided frame
Where art thou relentless disdain? ...
