poetry sounds better when you have the voice for it,
though sadly, i do not have the voice for it,
perhaps i can ask an ai program to harness
the voice of pablo neruda from the dead
and his ghost can read all of my poetry
to make it sound much better
than it is
i will never tell my wife this,
but i sometimes
use ai to run through some of our fights
so i can better understand why she gets mad at me,
and also to see if there's a pattern that
i'm not seeing,
like if most of our fights starts on a thursday,
or perhaps if there's a particular time that she is more prone to get angry with me,
i suppose there's an easier way to deal
with our marital spouts,
i could just listen,
but the ai sounds so much smarter
and understands me when i tell it my problems
that i want resolved
i asked my ai assistant what i could to improve
my writing, but my ai assistant is cruel,
and it told me to stop,
just stop what i was doing,
pencils down, the exam is over,
i need to go home, lie down, and probably consider
doing anything else rather than
write what i’m writing, right now!
