Bigguy nailed it... a lot of modern verse is so stuffed with images and unexpected words it has little clear meaning or tone... this is mesmerizing and coherent and so sonorous it\'s perfect. I\'m saving this one.

The stunning imagery of each line fills my senses to the brim, in this beautiful poem. \"cobwebs of childhood dreams, sewn into pillowcase clouds, drifting on an upended sapphire sea of memories\", I love this so much. Your closing line captures it all dear friend, this is breathtaking!

Good write SB.
There\'s a row about a \'wonky pub\' being demolished. New owners didn\'t care about it or its history.

Progress?
Bella Shepard said:
You have given us a most accurate tableau of technology superseding our humanity, in perfect verse. Every line rings so true, you would think that the warning bell would wake us up, but when you wear earplugs you never hear it. Hats off my friend, for such an incredible write.

The Great Pretender

Great to bring this topic into the arena of general speculation with your usual polish, Soren.
Here’s my take on this subject: AI will bring great change, and some of this will be good: searching, hunting selecting from massive data sets in medicine, to name just one discipline. Doubtless it will take over (and do better than) many human driven processes (job loss). In the wrong hands….and so on.
But become ‘more intelligent than\'…and take over…rule us.. just BS – The solution? PTP, Pull The Plug.

\'When I offered a bed of roses
I didn\'t mention the thorns\'
these words hit home, dear Poet
(I bought gardening gloves
for my heart, but still
it never seems to be enough
to keep the shrapnel
of belated regret from clustering
my mind and stifling
my lungs, capacity to hope...)
whatever side of blame we seat
we\'re each left contemplating
our what if\'s..

Cave in
L. B. Mek said:
ill-fated nightmares as reality
past mistakes repeatedly casually
justice ears deaf to our pleas
with lungs stunted by fear, we dare
to seek a reasoning, a grasp
asking why that we chose to intrust
with our cave\'s of hope
seems to be incapable of staying
by our side, without setting off
those land mines
we keep hidden, deep
within those singed corridors
of our heart..
(a great write dear Poet
forgive me
I couldn\'t help but try
and scribble a little poetic reply)

Well, KP told me that\'s how it\'s played!
