They’re saying AI writes better poetry: A poem 

I never counted my chicken. My poems 

go unpublished, and I’m sixty! They are no shining gems 

But, undiscovered, they lie on my blogsite, unread 

like deep-earth stone structures stranded in beds 

that even the most sharp-eyed satellites fail to uncover 

I have had no birth, no death, but deathly still moments 

These words, these worlds, are ignored, sunken rivers 

I am like a worthless recipe, a forgotten inlet 

May be, I’ll just have to take this to my death 

Yet, I can be a scentless flower on the periphery 

that no one ever graced my tea 

discarded by even the edges of destiny’s symphony. 

But grace is an imagination of humility 

So, I am not going to rue that no one ever read my poetry. 

And just when I thought I should improve my lot, 

they are saying AI beats human creations by a long shot

Hi, I am Monte Cyril Rodrigues and live in Melbourne, Australia. I am a retired journalist. I have been diagnosed with schizophrenia. I've had voices and visions all my life. I think it is a spiritual experience, my doctors think otherwise. I am a deeply spiritual person and keep having experiences with otherworldly realms.

  1. Monte – you are heard, read , understood and scented. never a word falls on deaf ears or goes noticed . In ways unknown it reaches those souls that need it most .keep writing and let the rewards unfold when they have to
