Every page is a work of art. I love the way text looks. I love how it is formatted. I love the shape of letters and symbols.

Does it count as reading if it's my own WIP I've read 1000 times?

There is always something lost when poetry is translated. But what remains is a different kind of charm.

This is the greatest article that has ever been written about AI Art/Writing because the author actually *understands* how language, words, and communication works. Words are not meaning, they are a vehicle to convey meaning. And art is a matter of an author's *intention* https://www.newyorker.com/culture/the-weekend-essay/why-ai-isnt-going-to-make-art

The Invitation - 5/2/20 & 6/12/20 Dust glitters on photo framed Damsel and dame donโ€™t know his name He stood alone at tabletop Best of kin there with him to cater to a forceful grin Love I love them all Oh how many ways they love him! But one way families lack is in beauty that the eye attracts Perhaps she could be a salve to his splintered soul An image of the one who holds the world in His hands If so, the question then becomesโ€ฆ When do you stop being one? Another year two becomeโ€ฆ That picture. But you? Without painter The muse is missing. Your skills? Lackluster Timeless tutors yet clock moves onward Readily do we cast aside the wisdom of an elder life Or perhaps, they too are absent Wristwatch is loose, I want to fill itโ€ฆ ...with strength of arm and right-handed ways But Iโ€™m a lefty, oh no, dismayโ€ฆ ...at what I do fill, my mind of toil yet hands, idle

The first novel I'm writing has no humans in it. It is now shaping up that the second novel I write will also have no humans in it. I'm not exactly sure how this happened, but I'm going to roll with it.

gm poets I have 1 more poem to share tomorrow. It is my longest one and my favorite one. It marks the point where I shifted over to prose. I love the patterns of words and still incorporate poetry into my everyday thoughts and work.

What are some web 3.0 livestreaming services/platforms? I've seen a few but I'm not really familiar.

Does anyone have any resources for Typographic art? I want to involve myself in more visual parts of storytelling but I really want to focus on words. Here's an example of a piece I made a while ago for my article about AI art:

Technomancy - 4/11/20 Adverse, revert, toxic inaction Plague spreader of a wide-eyed paradigm Under bright lights we dance and play The days far spent, though we never cared anyway Toy and fancy drew us away Vibrant flickers and wave of hand Magicians wrought slaves under the great tin man Profit they did and idols we made them Puppet strings have long drawn out Mannequin all men became, on fishing line a fishing game Reel to rule, lust over love, meaning goneโ€ฆ No more speaking of A priesthood of provocateurs, spawns of serotonin shamans Evocative in power, summon your master, shower his praises Kept lies to smile, feel something within Dismay delayed, vision is sin Deride truth and look no further Future is now, our own lives we murder The Sacrifice has been demanded, payment past due Tab put toward blood rituals to please panopticon Weโ€™ve made it here, New Babylon

Notorious - 4/9/20 Fickle fame and impure glances fan the flame of ego dances Envy idols made for me to keep me trapped in lands of dreams Up so high, out of reach, your steps falter, feel defeat I would let this fantasy rest, but how could I? The one, the bestโ€ฆ โ€ฆat many times we are told, impersonal voices, some we know Tricked as they were they tricked you; deceiving powers and airy words captivate Slim chance, success attained, broken lives lay in wake Complete you are, I have made it Known by all, liked by many, loved by none โ€˜cept self & spirit Contentment seeping through torn clothes; garbed in bright colorful rainbows Aging, old, a broken crown The great name known turned upside down Grand we are, delusion was kept; as flesh held tight fell from our faces. Coffin whip and rusted benz is legacy left to worship in

. . . and there's more where that came from folks! I'll stagger the casts for my last 2 or 3 standalone poems I wrote some years ago. Everything else like that I've wrapped into my WIP fantasy novel ๐Ÿšง ๐Ÿ“–

Artistry - 4/7/20 Art. Artist. Critic. Adoration An analystsโ€™ autoerotic fixation A penny for a life devoid of patron Pick up the pieces, pedestal placementโ€ฆ โ€ฆof a poor life glanced over Auteur we found! A saint we made him! Canon by rich manโ€™s sick amazement Gone the maker, but still I stand, to profit off this woeful man The worse he was, the wonders better Resurrected to wares by archon peddler Oligarchs ensnare a childโ€™s vision; groomed to become artifact derision. Unfair, unfazed, the cycle goes onward Begat of trial or wealthy wiles We etch ornate tombstone tiles
