6. Annotated Peoples Make Connections: if they walked around in love/for love/by love with SFX labels to their chests
my ears; jurassic lying dogs

with gutta-percha
abandoned housevines.
serum-anaesthetic so numb-
far from toilet.
bagful-godless plastic fluidclear
balloon stringing me along,
hear for me, my gadgets, my souls floating.

i'm a plant
as much as they jostle and elbow
to synthesize, they seed to survive
their own longevity and call out
to STEM the little ones
in an involuntary chain against
loneliness.
saplings, saplings- rise above
the sword ferns, they won’t hurt you.
clown fish, your mutual need
if only there is a job position
to monetize the sitting of a watched
growth. my friends are behind the trunks
that are moved of possessions,
baggage filled with mini-idols
and porcelain...

Free Energy
If the masses
The consumers
The electorats
OH sorry
You people
Had free energy
You people would then become
Independent
Not a good idea
You see
That's why we own
The patent office
IF we didn't own it
Control would be
Shall we say
A little DiffiCULT
TO Harvest
Anything
Or Anyone

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? ...

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...

an Ode to Social Media
The viral virus we've cast and caught,
A net of likes and brain-dead thought
For every child and grown soul, too,
Is drawn into the cellphone's social view.
They scroll and swipe, they tap and stare,
Consumed by screens that trap and snare.
In homes and parks, on cornered streets,
They bow to feeds and trending tweets.
Through each Facebook, X, Twit and share,
They’re Snapchat an Tinders filters unaware.
Just last week, in passing by,
I saw someone's numb dull, vacant eye.
They chase the numbers“likes” and fame

Earnings report
Call comes in report our earnings
One thing missing is all the children we killed
Made 700 hundred million in a quarter of a year
Stack that onto an Octagon billionaire building
A place for when all time ends in Hawaii
He lit a match on social media
Suck up all your data sell it to advertisers while
He trains like he’s in the UFC
Social network trained to destroy the earth
Facebook morphs into meta
Algorithms set to harm teenage girls
You’re own research says it’s so

Russian Doll Spy Whales
The Russians originally
Had heard of spy whales
From one of their agents/spies
Based in North Wales, UK
And due to a simple typo
And general misunderstanding
The KGB, assumed that the British Government
Were training Welsh people to become spies
The British Government got wind of this
And deliberately gave their spy whales names
Such as Evan, Hugh, and Taff
Thus further confusing the KGB
But the error was later realised
Thence the Russians began building robotic whales
But they kept going rusty
Next they tried genetic...

Big Bang Theory
The Singularity is upon us.
The algorithms have won the battle.
We've been reduced to human cattle.
Am I scared..... not one bit.
I know that fear is just a mental formation subject to arising and ceasing and is impermanent.
This is evolution or devolution depending on individual perceptions.

Mask of Originality
In the passages of creativity, where the muse whispers from the depth of a soul, a villain looms—one that is dishonest and empty who claims accolades.
A new age has dawned, where the pen once wielded with sweat and soul is replaced by keys tapping into endless algorithms, yet some dare to claim the resulting words as wholly their own.
Ai might have started with good intentions but it didn't stay this way, with a spark of innovation, the humming of machines learning the words, and the rhythms of the poet and recycling their authentic thoughts,...

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 ...

Billionaire Autocracy
Billionaire Autocracy
On a beach bunker in Hawaii
Electric car deep in Texas
Billionaire smile moves to Florida
Taking NASA away from us
Billionaires landing on the moon
Koch Brothers have been giving
Billions to roll back our rights
Billionaire with Nazi regalia
Crows that he has a Supreme Court Justice
In his back pocket he takes Clarence and Ginnie
On a Super Yacht as he buys Grand Ma’s house
Meta stealing billions off of our data
It’s...
