    • I hope I never have to rely on AI to write for me. Sometimes I’ll use a proofreader to correct spelling and punctuation but that’s it. The human element is what makes poetry real. The compassion, the anger, the love, the empathy, and even the laughter are all something that made men and women write poems in the first place.

      The future is scary being we won’t know what’s real and what isn’t.

      • Thanks as always, Damian! Heavy fucking write and powerful, indeed! I was once told by a wise man, also a writer, who said to me, “Whatever it is you write down, make it goddamn prophetic!” I’ve always kept that in mind over the years and the more I remember it, the better my writing becomes. True story…

    Silent Prayers

    How does one fly the night with pinioned wingsUpon celestial windsWhich caress the moon and steer the starsBefore the day beginsAnd so,In dreams go I to tethered heartAnd quietly slip the moorTo sail upon the darkling seaIn search of...
