Ryan Gayagay Poet Rhyme

Poet's Note to Contest Sponsors

Since I am not a Premium Member,
     not by design but through circumstance  
(I’d gladly convert from nonmember 
     if only I had better finance),
I lack that feature that would allow
     myself to make some notes and declare
That my poems are entirely made
     sans the aid of any AI ware.
Permit me then to affirm it here
     on pain of death or, worse, your disdain
My verses are humanly written 
     as are all the pathos they contain.

Lin Lane November 3, 2024 at 8:03 AM Ryan, it would be the positive nature of humans to expect that any posting here is the original work of the poet's hand. Truth be told, many here use AI. I will trust that you do not. I see you've written about Katie Malua. I'll read your poem about her because she's long been a favorite of mine. Ryan Gayagay November 3, 2024 at 5:29 PM Thanks, Lin!
