So what to use for a story In fright gaslit tech-today? Whilst automated gazettes of cant Strive to flash induce such seedy Feed-fuelled falsehood frenzies? Time to trip through the tribal tales: Do you remember our guy Arthur? Rocking that ancient concept - Poetry to entertain you - That tatty old matter clatters back Onto the reboot track. Again. Deploying all the poet-teqh, Revoking all your lie-sense, Let’s rap along the old country songs: Tell yet another true tale of Arthur. Enough guff introduction — off we go! Lie-heights! CAMRA! Action! Scene-set initiation: Kick off with an abduction.

Sir Thomas Malory of Newbold Revel - recurring errored knight, hard dastard - closed, completed the tale compelled to tell. Trapped in reflective prison hereafter, haunted by wholesale slaughter seen; wished she could sit as an English Queen while he told his story to her. Dreaded hard hours before dawn; Jaw-splitter, eye-closer yawn - blinding red-white flash inducement - reopened in another world quite different. Hooded figures round a table, Like some flailing, awful fable: Not one of them seemed stable.

Hello everyone,

As the #NFT market is borked, here's a golden oldie as far as #poets go in the ultra modern age: 'Ode to NFTs'.

Huge thanks to everyone in @alicefraser.bsky.social 's Writers Workshop.

#poetry #crypto #writingcommunity #poem
Ode to NFTs by Pendaran Iwys I sing in my blockchains of NFTs; Technology searching for its need. Continual cult of cool concepts: ‘This one’s dead smart! Got crypto-steps!’ Mathematically conceptually perfect - Just there’s no actual need to use it. Engineered to be a market grower - Grossly consumptive of electric power. Pardon, but for the praise point of this ode: The natural beauty of well written code. Flinging up hyper real frontiers - Bubbling up in some marks’ tears. Another tech fad flashes past us; Where’d I put my 3D glasses? Maybe bards are mammon embittered; Making visual blags gets you minted! Come and grab a virtual token! All flim-flam; tailored, bespoken. Created artificial brand scarcity - Frangible tech-vanity’s no security. Sublime mathematical music to the spheres Compiled in word plays for our ears. Intrinsic harmony of natural lines - Tulips become a bloom in time.
