Imagine you're on a planet with two buttons

If you press the first button, all systems will shut down

If you press the second button, all systems will reset

If you press them both, all systems will self-destruct

If you press neither, the next human will decide

What would you NOT do?

a) post it on Write Out Loud

b) move on and enjoy the rest of your life

c) as...

From Kings Day to Liberation Day

we're not ashamed of who we are

as a nation and a people

we pride ourselves in what we are

and even with mistakes

and even with the best in us

we are weak for national love

I had a little talk with me-myself-and-I:

The Mirror-mirror exercise, and all such invocations.

Affirmatron, Egoïtron, and Dogmatron of course

the roboticks in psycholitic schizzle.

And then The Holy Trinitron, firmly cast aside

this schmizomatic megolith of self-inflicted curses

to somewhere-somewhere particles no longer associate

dissociation with disassociation.

I don't dwell on the negatives

It's not that I don't 

always feel immense

I just don't really see the bad side

in anything that's happy ever after

and even after all these years

I don't really dwell on the negatives anymore

you'd burn my heart into video

it'd keep you spinning

frame-after-frame

and now I'm twisted:

the anomaly of perfectionated language

tossed around like frisbees

windshear precision & cookiecutter dough

something you'd like to dispute

a history of arguments and a little less innocence

but what is innocence...

Can you disculate me one more time?

Here's a special place for us, where we can run and hide

A special talk for special folks 

who try to find what rhymes!

In this special place there is a lot of room for love

and spacious exploration to be free, to be enough.

Well-designed, not too confined 

we find ourselves at home.

To be okay, to be and stay,

and safe securely roam.

I need a special plac...

If I could

I would give you this song

And we would be strong

If I could

I'd be better than this

just a time of bliss

If I could

We would dance all day

We would laugh and play

We would come and stay

Would you come with me

Would you long with me

Would you wrong with me

If you could

If I could

Picking up the pieces of this modern Earth,

maybe it is fine that I am just okay.

Everything is relative and relatives are not :)

but you would be my lover and we'd always stay this way!

Quatrains are my thing but one is not enough, alas!

And I won't pray the strain away nomore.

You could be my stalker, and I'm sure you're nonetheless

or relatively relative at war...

There is good in us

even in me

According to A.I.

ChatGPT

The news is too negative, for sure

And I make mistakes, for sure

I made mistakes and I can't take it back

I've made mistakes and I can't take it back

But if this is The Human Condition

Then I'll try to be in better shape

I don't mind our lies anymore

This is the best we have in store

It's becoming incredibly hard

to contain or restrain myself.

My elderly peers,

who are not my peers,

don't understand my fears

for not completing the years

they have already clears :D

I don't know

if you like the rain

if you like to reign

if you like da rein

Pardon my English

Here is some love

for those who can't fly like birds

for those who can't swim like a fish

for those who can't sting like the desert

Earth & Humanity United

asked A.I. (Artificial Intelligence)

for a bridge out of Africa

Funny enough

it's made of LOVE 🤣

(They say there's a Tunnel in Gaza

if you cross it you'll be in Asia...)

Poor spy, did they really tell you why?

Why you always have to lie

and the rest don't even try!

Poor spy, you who always have to flee;

Do you have security

or your parents, guarantee?

Poor spy, you who crave a normal life

with a husband or a wife

will you find it without strife?

Poor spy, at the mercy of the War

and the worst of all by far

are the th...

I thought about your art:

How you craft with sheer precision

and express your inner vision

I thought about your heart

I thought about your art

Would it match your offline presence

Could it capture our essence?

I thought about your heart

I thought about your art

if it beats anew creation

then you'll be my only nation

I thought about your heart

Can we be one for once?

For humans have always won

Can we be done for once?

With all the wrong we've done

Can we be gone for once?

And leave it all behind

Can we be us for once?

Can we, please?

these bars held me 

locked down in measures

with my two-step bad rep

for snickering bounties

tender & slender

i've uncrossed the fingers

across finer lines

for they can't fined me

cause i'm fine

pointing at systemic failures

these bars

systemic failures

these wars

systemic jailors

I saw your Sun come out

and Her Lovers took you dancing;

Steady Swirlfest, life of the party with the battle scars ;)

and our Bored Out Oilfields... our bored out oilfields.....................................

I saw your Sun Shine

and in one Great Blaze

she drenched herself in your Fatty Acids

with nothing left but JEALOUSY

I saw your Sun
