Under the dark sky of 2025, where the Genetic Basin pulses

Under the dark sky of 2025, where the Genetic Basin pulses like an overloaded server beneath the shadows of a Sulimi, my thoughts flow like a faulty algorithm through 6G networks, whistling beneath faces lit by screens, with AirPods in ears, running through Amazon Go, crushing biodegradable packaging, in a digital chaos colder than the melted ice of the Arctic. Faces of extinguished moons, scrolling TikTok under artificial neon, with quantum phones vibrating in pockets, lost AI messages, in the metaverses of a world forgetting to breathe under the gray sky. Baneasa Mall, now an NFT hub, with free tokens fluttering, like false stars, bots from online marketplaces invading, shouting "IT'S FREE!", grabbing synthetic meat, solar energy by the box. The autonomous bus rattles like a faulty drone, shaken, where the Suleni virtually trample each other to be the first to board in AR, to be the first to descend, to sit, crawling slowly through VR, but dashing, like panthers at the "drop" of a rare NFT—a grotesque dance under the sky, gray with climate change, under lost AI rhythms. The Church of the "Holy Sepulchre", a 4K live stream, with digital bags, sprinting at bayonet, ready to overturn a sanctified NFT, shouting, "Sirrr, we're in line too!"—a knowing but blind mob, under pixelated vaults of forgetfulness, under the heavy sky of 2025. On graphene slabs, between cleaning robots and 3D printers, I ask: those who built Opera, Roman baths, divine statues, would they have crawled on nanotube floors for virtual energy? The master whispers: "These were brought, heating with biofuel, on trodden floors, with straw under the gray sky!" Today, assistance, robotic parking, digital muddle, quantum discord, discipline, under AI sanctions, like Pavlov's algorithm—a metaverse of oblivion. Under the dim light of a holographic screen, I see the Sulimea as a shadow, hybrid, with neural implants, unsporty digital fauns, lost. In quantified globalization, wings broken by AI, stars melted in carbon clouds, a drained Genetic Basin under the rhythms of an AI mimicking Inna's voice—my melancholy is a lost code, an eternal bug, a dream, magic under silent slabs, where Chess Pieces no longer see, and I remain, blind, under the sky of 2025, an echo of a millennium shattered into ashes.
