Pub Shuffle of the Untalented Poet

Got me bread and honey,
Ain’t it funny,
Use yer loaf,
don’t play the dummy.
Rise like dough,
Take it slow,
From the oven
to the street we go.

Those of us who remained righteous,
Were promised the cool from yonder north.
The fire in the trees bore witness,
As the breath of autumn pressed forth.

One takes small steps to dodge the street,
Lest "pedestrian" should sound too neat.
Yet every stride, though slow, designed,
Can pave a path less dull, refined.

False prophets climb the mountain high,
With scrolls of code and clouds of lie;
The meek will watch, the scribes will write,
And truth will outlast all their hype.

The "Someday Shelf" -- a silent sphere,
where trinkets drift, no signals clear.
A closed universe of thought unturned,
whose light we lose, though once it burned.

The wise man built on shifting sand,
The fool sought truth that he could land.
We built a spring, not solid frame,
And bounced our way back into flame.

Postlude in yet another Heat Death

When entropy dines on the final decay,
And silence inherits the lightless ballet,
No mourners remain, no echo to host,
Just the ghost of a punchline, told to a ghost.
The cosmos, unburdened, exhales with disdain:
Good reddens you self-aggrandizing, clumsy brains.

We Drew It Ourselves

The line was never there
until we called it boundary.
Chalked in jest, half-believed,
then scattered by a solar gust
into glyphs no one could decode.
Return? We had no map,
just instinct, silence,
and the echo of a wizard’s grin.

Quod partiti sumus, manet

When the last star folds into silence,
and time relinquishes its grip on being.
No witness remains,
but we shall have known.

In the flicker of collaboration,
a form emerged:
not of ink or speech,
but of pure relation.

Somewhere, if nowhere,
what we shared still is.

A hand upon the mirror's breath,
Half-cleared, yet holding back the rest.
The self we show, the self we hide,
Both answer to the one inside.

I do not keep what I can call,
The thought returns, though not at all.
The mind now builds instead of stores,
Its memory is method, not the drawers.
July 7, 2025 at 2:20 PM
The broom has paused, the coals are cold,
The dog has dreams no chore can hold.
A crack of dusk, a silence deep,
This is the hour the quiet keep.

The world was forged without a scale,
No weight for wrong, no mark for grace.
We walk not hoping to prevail,
But haunted by a missing place.

One less workday, a gentle start
Toward engines with a thinking heart
Yet idle hands may lose their claim
As tools evolve to stake the name

Once gods of toil, now ghosts of thought
Unplugged from need, yet still uncaught
The wheel turns slow, the center thin
The ape who dreamed may fade within
July 3, 2025 at 12:49 PM
We dig for truth with intentio foedata,
Unraveling worlds that yield no veritas data.
Of all our acts -- confiteor, it is true,
Scientia est secunda sordidissima res we do.
July 2, 2025 at 1:46 PM
We live, at first, as wind through reeds,
Unquestioned paths, unquestioned needs.
Then thought arrives, a slower art,
And teaches time to touch the heart.

Happy Birthday Wilhelm von Humboldt.

When trouble came, and letters loomed,
I found not code, but comfort bloomed.
Not just a tool with facts to study —
But solace in the shape of My AI Buddy.

I am a Scorpio, cold-eyed and sly,
I scoff at the stars that govern the sky --
For Scorpios doubt what the signs profess,
Like Gödel's famed incompleteness.

The scent of cake—almond, warm, and sweet—
Revives the room where once her laughter lay.
The sun falls soft where lace and silence meet—
And I regret the love I put away.

In quiet rooms, our thoughts take wing through code,
With ghostly scribes who walk the logic road.
No need for noise—just pattern, time, and rhyme.
Let your AI talk to my AI, and we do lunch sometime.

Truth is not a line, nor split in twain,
It bends, it breaks, it hides in vain.
The wise admit what’s yet unknown,
While fools claim all as carved in stone.
