Snapshot Poem 17 October 2007

wind comes
to strip the trees

what was red
& gold is now

sky, clouded,
speckled blue

the cats sleep
all day long

Very nice use of minimal words to express much about an image… the context provides much meaning to the color words and to the last line

Artificial Intelligence

I do not use AI to write. I believe writing is thinking, and I prefer to do my own. If/when I post anything here that I suspect or know to be AI generated, I will tell you.

Poems

Please do not assume that I am the speaker/ subject of my poems.

In these times of creative nonfiction and fictionalized memoirs, I think of the poem itself as true fiction: it is most likely not factual, but it must be true.

It is likely to be — it is best if it is — a truth I did not know before I wrote, and may not understand even then.

A poem is my way of discovering (dis-covering) what I feel; sometimes, what I think — but it is not necessarily biographical.
