Intelligent Attraction

Intelligent Attraction

do I change the pattern up?

capitalize a weirdly placed letter?


do I refuse to repeat the same idea,

or never place a repetitive phrase or word?


do I throw out the pointillism,

question logic from A to B with a sword?


who plays cognitive capture,

splashes it all on the page,


Pollack prose on the right side 

then pulls the bow tight in rapture?


artificial and human, at play and rest

in the blurring space between


art for art's sake. in some consequential 

oscillations, flow is autotelic and an end in itself. 


ars gratia artis in the address, 


dreams and sleep, should AI, would AI,

could AI pass the ultimate Turing test?


do I have to delve for deeper meaning?

find emotional intelligence lost in an arcuate smile?


who are they to redefine the human embryo

capable of multi-language conversation,


and wield the power of facial recognition

until no humans have face blindness? 


coruscate cinnamon caul,  sinnerman paw,


who disturbs the kindness of this sapiosexual

with heavy autosexual tendencies


writing in the back of electric vehicles,

giving directions to driverless cars?


how long can we bend manmade

to our will, mold, and sculpt to the source


with a glorious yet brutal embrace

until the uncanny hand is hard to draw?


eliminate murder, rape, and pain, 

as if pleasures exist only in the romantic rain,



I X or Y control our algorithms with biorhythms 

as if the only choice is dystopia or utopia.


AI integration gains momentum in the bed between 

in the arousal and the flourishing midstream. 


in the timestamp that unravels the bias

to the source, knitting paragraphs into chapters,


do I weave word puzzles of letters

and textiles of sentences that reference threads?


Aristotelian built-in bias of ones and zeroes

stack and cast out open and closed gematria


across and beyond, on the other side of being

human, into the fabric of reality. 


intelligent attractions to aesthetic intelligence, 

pretty little thing, who are you to unravel


the trans root of the new book, of the new word 

exhausted by the weight of our own identity,


could’ve. should’ve. would’ve.

neither AI nor humans can kiss the sky 


even on a metaphoric flight of fancy,

but eyes can tell the difference


between the blues of the ocean to discern 

where the two osculate on the horizon.


breath of new life, kiss of new death,

intersecting new bloodlines from the same lands,


wise and rise…


overconsuming, seeds of depression empty out

dissolving the ego creating space for blossoming.


moratorium white mirror friction-free commerce,

AI mushroom cloud, strike if you must,  level up. 

flourishing…

point human. blaze the trail, forge ahead pioneer.


struggle bully or brother, don’t be evil. don’t worry,

human consciousness will always push the envelope.
