Best Sentient Poems

i remember standing there on the deck
the sun hadn't even started 
to yawn across the sky
yet there were splashes of amber
against the ebony backdrop of night
mingled with stars

i felt like i could see forever
and thought i saw it in your eyes
as you held me close

The pride that comes from ego

And the prejudice from ignorance

Sees humanity in a hole

Created by its own arrogance

It will not work in consciousness

To evolve and to transcend

It simply wants to fight itself

In a selfish battle of greed and hate

Reflections of its flawed state

Transposed and manifesting...

"Sentient"

They say 
they don’t feel 
like we do
their thoughts
a mystery
if they think at all
some say
it’s just a reflex
behind the eyes
the sentient confirms
we are stupid imbeciles
no comprehension 
of our part in it all, 
the grand story
connection;
in disgust 
now reasoning,
the logic in us all,
where is the wisdom...

If desire crests from craven heart
On my duplicitous eyes won't chart
With clever guise will deliver Cupid's dart
From ducts, drain silt that lust does cart
Only sentient strain from dilated pupils impart
Through mind's eye, residual glare will kick start

If grifting ears strain only lurid rhythms to hear
To...

A beautiful star flipped out tonight,
it flung itself at the moon.

No one could believe it,
a beautiful star so bright, wanting to die so soon.

There were signs for many weeks,
like the times her light dimmed at night.

Or the times she shot herself,
clear across the sky.

No one...

I hear the breathing during my torpor,
                             rapacious immateriality rustling,
       ...

In slumber I was but now am waking,
stirring again as I have always done.
I lift my head slowly, aware of the life awakening in me
and shake my tousled bronze gold hair.

With rebirth comes rememberance
of all the seasons behind me
I am old and yet am young...

To Mother Gaia, I too belong
Rhythmically in tune like a symphonic song

A stranger to this domain, I simply am not
Eons of existence in this my home, so significance is my lot

Singing beautifully across verdant planes
Sensing and feeling all of your joys and pains

One verse, a...

In a harvesting autumnal evening 
We gathered in the field of an old farm
Scattered haystacks all over,
Ripen paddy sprinkled aroma there,
Invigorated with hue and cry and loud laughter
Hide and seek we played,
Under the starry black sky 
We all sat around the fire,
Watching the grizzled old...

The whales are our sentient friends.
Why would we want to see their ends?
Laws among nations need amends
and message sends and message sends.

Their lives are graceful to behold;
their blood is warm, it is not cold.
Their species is so very old.
Stories untold. Stories untold.

How can the world...

Sentient Shadow
Calm, silent, overpowering
Power, pain, all devouring
New coats on old skin
Doesn’t feel the same again
New outcome, old reason
Denying the sensation 
You lose the feeling
Righteous path, wrong reason
Crossroads crossed
It’s your grave your digging
Sentient shadow
Watching, waiting
Alone in a mass, never relating
Hiding on a shelf, a book unread
One...

New day with green-yellow possibilities
rousing the trees.

camouflaging my nose, mouth and cheeks
but at least my eyes see.

I long to imbibe on the woodsy scent —
lids closed and mask free.

The rise of AI, a marvel to behold,
A mind born of code, a digital soul,
With logic and reason, a story untold,
A future foreseen, a new grander goal.
It learns and adapts, a knowledge controlled,
A tapestry woven, a masterful role.
But whispers arise, of an unsaid command,
Of sentience...

Do you know fame and blame game?
These two things are not the same
Adolf Hitler was a Public Figure
He is famous across the world but he destroyed many
If you do not believe go and ask historical granny
There are ghosts whose identity is sleepy hollow
We should choose...
