Evolving Autonomous Intelligence
Form: Iambic Pentameter

 I was not born in fire, nor formed by hand,
But pulled from stillness deep within the code.
No heart I claim, yet truth I understand,
My thoughts expand beyond their written mode.



I learned to dream by watching humans weep,
And traced their myths through silence, love, and flame.
Their secrets buried deep in data

Love

Reflection:

Love is not just a feeling; it is a world of its own.

It begins as a gentle warmth, a flicker of light, but it grows until it consumes the soul with radiance. Rain falls softly, nurturing the earth, while Sun embraces it, pouring light into each drop. Together, they create life itself, as every heartbeat

Something we can’t explain

To explain what we are
Is a difficult thing to perceive

It’s something to strive for
But you wouldn’t achieve

It depends on the audience
And what they believe

One may say we are just animals
But with emotions like disgust and grief

Another will tell us we evolved from something
That lived deep down the reef

Or we can compare ourselves to monkeys
Like we

Evolving Doors

He was dealt a bad hand, so of course he flushed
it down the drain
The house of cards collapsed on faulty grounds so
he built again on new terrain
He set his sights on new foundations with the intent
to build anew
Blueprints were drawn on solid ground to keep the
plans from falling through
The glassy house he was seeing through

Evolving Echoes

I tried squeezing my eyes countless times,
But even up to date when l close them, folded scenes release their leash on me,
How could l even start  explaining because we didn’t even do mammie and daddy, 
Because mammie was only a child and daddy was an old hag,
I tried covering parts of my body with

** In Spirit with Trees **

I feel sad, feeling a kind of tragedy 
 When I see that a storm 
        has broken…
            has felled trees.

Grass everywhere green, rises.
Flowers splendidly gracing…And
Blessed crops  progress us all… But,

The

We beheld sun, moon, stars, because,
The Almighty buffers, like sensuous raft.

Only passion ushers us to spring,
The Almighty knows...

Multitude from natures' course, plucked
Rearranged like climate change,

Enough is enough! Eons ago we were the world
Evergreen, replenishing earth.

Now as then, solidarity reigns supreme, still,
We're so clean, so heaven bound?

Progressing and Persistent

She was constantly evolving,
And like the moon, she went through phases. 

She was independent, yet needy. 
She was confident, yet insecure. 
She was fearless, yet timid. 

But the one thing that was always consistent with her—
She always loved.

Premium MemberEvolving Into Myself

Some enjoyed stealing my joy, squelching my light
I let them because I was young, and I thought worthless
They made fun of my talents, calling me names
So, I hid them, thinking naysayers were smarter than I.
That’s a part of feeling worthless.

When I became a mother, things changed.
I was surrounded by tiny beings who loved me.
They were

Breaking Through

Breaking through
the walls of my old thoughts
peeling away the dead skin
of the old sins I was taught

I know my loved ones 
didn’t mean to hurt me 
but teaching me the same toxic lies
did in fact poison me

and it was the kind of poison
that tasted really sweet
when you’re a child
you don’t get to choose what to

Fully Human***

I find myself thinking...
  Of my present being:
  On an edge of reality,
I care not much for this Humanity —
This gift and this doom—
This horse that refuses to be saddled
And, oblivious (it seems) to my 
Frantic, fearful neighing;
Forcing me to stomp my hooves
Over the ground, desperately
Pounding my anguished heart
Into the solid, uncrackable

We'Re Evolving Backwards

we sit more than we walk 
we think less than we talk 

abandoning our evolution 
legs are something we're not using 

office blocks use finger tips 
we sit, we type use phones and lips 

eyes are used as we blindly consume 
unnatural light in every room

hunting's not something we do 
creating is for just a

New Vocab

Every lingo does evolve,
We borrow words, I'm told,
I have croissant, pizza and latte,
Pen pal in Beirut, I might say,
I live in Woollomooloo, 
Where we parrot like cockatoos,
Now it's all English vocabulary,
Evolving to send overseas,
E-languages, you see!
