Indeed, birds are remarkably intelligent and often underestimated creatures. I had the pleasure of owning an Amazon Yellow Nape parrot for nearly 40 years, until one day, a thief stole him from my yard while I was cleaning his 8\' cage in the house cage. My bird was exceptionally intelligent, capable of singing, requesting food, talking, and mimicking various sounds. To me, birds are the most loyal and faithful companions globally. I deeply miss my bird, Coco, whom I raised from birth and cared for by hand for the first three weeks of his life. He matured into a stunning bird. Unfortunately, I\'m accustomed to people taking things from me, and it pains me to have lost him. Someone came and stole him in his traveling cage.

Environmental, societal and other burning problems are touched upon and examined thoroughly in this piece of work. Emotionally and poetically it resembles rap genre, generally speaking - a thorough philosophic reflection on urgent subjects...

Well placed Soren: Metaphor free, coherent – I’ll give you a big✔️for that alone. Now I could enjoyably debate nearly every other line there, but will settle on one for now as the larger project is not really suited to the MPS format.
Hot topic – how often do you see orchi jump up and down like that? But let’s maintain a steady course. Eugenics was openly discussed by notable people and other worthies in the thirties, and the debate only ground to a halt with the event of Hitler and WW2. But to cut to the chase: Who would have the power, the authority and how would it work in practice when and how, given there are gene/cultural lines the world could well do without?
Up for a further chat on that or anything else you feel particularly pleased or satisfied with at a time and place of your choosing.

Soren, that turn where people become “only mouths to feed” really struck me…it shows how quickly human worth gets reduced when value is measured purely by productivity. Excellent job, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Don\'t worry! I read that human brains - well some of us(!) are vastly more intelligent than robots. Did I just grow one more brain cell, making 4 in total now? You too?! heehee.

Okay, Soren. I found your poem. On the money!
Now, how about if all this misery is feeding something else? Something that has no intention of \"dying\" anytime soon?

This poem explores the distressing consequences of overpopulation and the potential repercussions of technological advancements, particularly artificial intelligence, which raises ethical concerns about human worth, the economy, and the societal future if jobs become redundant and resources are limited. The poet appears to tackle problems such as poverty, dependency, the role of technology, genetic superiority, and societal decline, envisioning a dire situation where the marginalized are considered disposable, resulting in a dystopian outlook of a future where only the \'best\' thrive.

Suppose all the AI robots got together and realised humans were just useless beings.
How long before they just got rid of us. You see it with the drones in Ukraine, we\'re a step nearer to oblivion

Me again! I\'m reading a bit on the environment and nutrients in rivers, lakes, etc. It seems there can be too many nutrients in some waters, that works adversely to some species of flora and fauna - called eutrophy = \'Well-fed\'. Or eutrophication. That\'s all my 3 brain cells used up, saying that word!

Good write SB. There\'s horrible eugenics, who wish for some of those things towards the end of the poem. They set themselves up as judges, or gods even (or even God maybe). saying, yes, let\'s dispose of the \'rubbish\', \'sub-standard\' humans. Even if they succeeded, they themselves would be left, and THEY might see themselves as the \'rubbish\'. Though they would be caught up in their hypocrisy and see themselves as the superior ones. Eugenics is evil, I say.
That\'s a lot of thinking, Fido says, and advises me to have a lay down and rest now. lol.

Sounds like my old shed.
It just needs stabilising, couple of nails here and there.
Then it fell down because there was an earthquake ten thousand miles away.

My friend, this is sharp and unsettling…the careful probing, the hidden rot, the moment where fixing becomes unraveling. The ending drops like the roof itself. Powerful work, Soren. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

One of my favorites is well-written, illustrating the cycle of life and how we slowly decay.
Your poem \"The Mark\" revolves around decay, deterioration, and the consequences of neglect over time. It metaphorically explores how structural decay—represented by a rotting beam and a disintegrating wall—mirrors the inevitable decline of human constructs and perhaps even human life. The poet delves into physical decay, using the imagery of a house falling apart to evoke deeper themes of vulnerability, loss, and the fragility of existence.
