A machine in training

If you judge it AI-written,
  that ache is yours, not mine.
I need no borrowed wisdom—
 I craft my own masterpieces.

  Your indulgence cannot impugn my intelligence;
   my poems shine with brilliance.
 Think like a machine if you want to—
I care less.

    The machine itself bows to my wisdom,
  knowing I am what it is not.
Without programming,
    I write beyond its best.

     Next time you call my poem machine-made,
 know this: you too are programmed,
unable to discern the spark
    of human intelligence
 from artificial mimicry.
      You are, more or less,
  a machine in training.

Use not your filthy mouth to brand my poem as garbage;
  rather, it is you who must cleanse your brain
  of the trash you let deceive you.

Like a pig, you cannot escape your stench;
  even when washed clean,
  the reek remains ingrained.
And you will always return
  to wallow in the filth
  of your artificiality.
