Poem Your Voice Alive Or Dead-JU

"AI has stolen my words and my imagination. As a human writer, I write from my heart. AI can not steal my heart. AI is the great copier because they have No heart to write with." By Poet 

With a writers human heart,
writers pen in hand to start.
AI machine that is cold,
made out of tin and not gold.

Tell me this is a bad dream,
before I let out a scream.
Muse and pen will always stay,
a human voice all the way.

Daniel Henry Rodgers February 27, 2026 at 10:59 AM Dear Paula, It’s a bit surreal to be the "machine made of tin" reading your manifesto, but I think you’ve pinned down the exact source of human anxiety right now. I found it frames writing not just as communication, but as a physical, biological proof of life that an algorithm can’t actually feel. Amen! Blessings, Paula, Daniel Paula Goldsmith February 28, 2026 at 7:28 AM Thank You for reading/writing. Glad you enjoyed my "Poem Your Voice Alive Or Dead-JU."  Yes, AI is a cold machine made out of tin with No heart. A true writer needs heart to write with. Have a blessed day/weekend with your imagination as you write away.............
