Premium Member Joan and the Judge

While Judge Bradley Stevens was on a plane to Chicago,
there would be a delightful, but ditsy blonde he got to know.
A new hostess named Joan was on her first flight.
She was awkward and clumsy, and didn’t do her job right.
However, Judge Stevens found Joan quite a delight.
He thought Joan should be the better half of his life,
so Bradley took Joan’s hand and she became his wife.
Despite all the ups and downs, love still prevailed.
By many television watchers, this program was hailed

Based on the 1950‘s television sitcom “I Married Joan“
I thank both the Internet Movie Database and You Tube for information I 
obtained to write this poem.

Premium Member CASPER AND SPOOKY

Spooky the tuff Little Ghost liked to BOO,
Knew he was scarier than scary that’s true,
Enjoyed scaring people out of their wits,
Often did he do this, used to go on a blitz
Letting them think he was a bat out of hell,
Oh, come on, that’s why his comics sold so well.
Wore his black little doiby hat, looked so debonair,
His freckles gave him a look of attitude and flair.
Being from Brooklyn his accent was dissimilar,
So, his Derby hat he pronounced doiby,
And his girlfriend Pearl he called Poil.
But Spooky wasn’t all that bad like, ‘The Ghostly trio,’
He was a bit cocky though and did have an ego.
Poil pleaded with him not to scare
People, she had vivid red hair
And in it wore a black bow ooh la, la
She was pretty, other ghosts flirted with her, aha.

As for Casper the Friendly Ghost, he and
Spooky were cousins, Spooky constantly teased
His cousin that he was Mr nice guy to everyone
But Casper enjoyed making friends, a whole ton.
He was visible to humans but for them was still a ghost.
Casper leaves his uncles the ghostly trio who were morose,
And the cute ghost-child goes out into the world
To find friends, but be it animal or human he meets,
They all scream A GHOST, and run away, Casper
Was distraught and tried to commit suicide, not realizing
He was already dead, then quite amazingly,
Meets two children who take him to their mum,
Who reacts with fear, but then welcomes him to their home.
Mom sends the three to school with a kiss the next day,
Casper was as happy as a lark, and what more can I say,
He now looks like his friends, dressed and clothed 
Like a human child – Casper this personable 
Ghost was ecstatic, 
His translucence accepted and no longer feared,
Casper to the whole world has become a cartoon 
Character so endeared.

Poetry isn’t dead yet

Poetry is almost on the exit tense
We forgotten how poetry should make one feel or brush the emotions to sleep or facing  our fears by using words only

The words we use now are mostly misused or misunderstood
The line between the coverage of words it’s as bombastic sarcastically

The humour in all hammers the gang of verbs and pronounce on the quarter base of rhymes
The theme parades the scavenger hunt it hints only once for the words of a poet to touch down directly
Words shouldn’t be hidden in codes they should be explicit exact as naked

Poetry shouldn’t be baked by learners still growling the grounds of grammer while penetrating the industry for light and likes
Pledge for true poetic justice as it only justifies the art beneath the words and all
It’s the creation of luring mood in words
The action of pace it takes it’s not meant for it to be locked out and just be used for an image of database
The damage that words can invade it petrifies the lost of touch of poetry

There is no wish of death upon poetry
Can it be recognised to organise the difference between fake and fade
There is so little time in this planet to shame the grace of poetry

As there is million ways in distinctively identify the group of words that can start or end a life
Embrace the discovery of poetry not only as to recite but to write in the pages of diary entry in inflicting the pain that writers share with confidence including anonymously

It shouldn’t be a long lost in the mist of big words in trying to define poetry
But just a simple line or paragraph to entail the entity of grasp of mid air words that paints poetry


Premium Member A I Poem

I cry between the lines, A.I. verse this will never be.
I defy the artificial assembler of words to impersonate, 
to predict this in living color.
Absent from its language database is the driving arousal,
the hormonal passions defining my mind. 
It can’t know the meaning of hunger or the rush of adrenalin.
It has never felt a sex drive or experienced an ******.
Conditional A.I. can perform automated reasoning,
Algorithmic rules like a script for a puppet.
A.I. words are hollow placeholders applied according to a
logic of learning supplied by humans.
A.I. will repeat the learning routine until it masters the task,
playing chess or imitating a poet.
Artificial Intelligence never feels joy or grief,
never sleeps, weeps, or dreams,
knows not the flavors of ice cream or potatoes,
lacks any wonder in the beauty of a spring day,
cannot comprehend my primordial span of fervor.
Despite the fatalism of high-tech CEOs,
our extinction is a choice.
Lacking agency or sentience, 
A.I. robots are no threat to the human race.

Premium Member Defining Vs Non-Defining

To use “that” or substitute “which”
Knowing this would make me quite rich 
Wrong words are a glitch
That we hate and do switch
Since an editor’s ire is a b*tch


Author's note: I have been writing technical material for the past year, which has taken all my creative energy. I have missed many of the wonderful poets who live here. The good news is that the people I work for are beginning to embrace database publishing. 

We have all the paragraphs in one table, and "assemble" the paragraphs into documents using another table by importing record keys. Most people are not interested in this kind of thing, however, it could save us all a lot of money and lead to better technical publications from my employer.  

So, the site has some filtering for political correctness. At first, I thought I had left a word off, but alas, no. Is a little humor that bad?

Premium Member I Resent the Dragon

I glare at the dragon; she is not easy to understand
Her keyboard lays dormant; I despise her in many ways
She’s a machine, you are the boss, someone says
He is on probation now, not understanding our battle

My sword is mighty; but hers is mightier
she has the last word, because she can
I can’t even type without her changing my capitals
sometimes she refuses to acknowledge words I think are words

she has programs that I will never use,
because she intimidates me, and her instruction books are ridiculous
I don’t read anything over six pages
I glare at her, wanting my old life back

She is here to stay, resolute and determined
I have to make room for her; everyone else in the house adores her
my children click clack click her keys, and are delighted
my husband throws around terms like “database and delete”.
Words I never used before this dragon arrived.

Wordsmiths

Words reside alone in time and space;
Only sentient minds their roots trace.
Etymologists bring accents, forms to the surface;
Lexicographers establish a chronological base.
In dark, library basements, archivists file in database;
In academic institutes, linguists their value appraise.
Calligraphers, Engravers with artistic touch glaze.

Phrases the syntactical bridge brace,
and cultured interlocutor platforms grace.
Idioms the colloquial strains do lace;
Sages their poignant advice encase.
Ethnographers stride where lingua francas interface.
Truisms sculpt a vernacular face;
Politicians their trite maxims raise.

Premium Member Fads Come and Fads Go

Fads come and fads go
Is this pronoun thing a ho ho ho?
I am sure for some it is important and real.
Others jump on, wanting more zip and zeal.

Tik Tok and U-tube, two of today’s norms
Taking new directions, creating new forms
Will they both be passé’ in the thirties?
Names going back to Homers and Gerties?

Database and web were unknown in the eighties.
Google was not a word known to us natives. 
Word processors barely peeking out.
LOL and MMAT make me want to shout!

The first computers took an entire room.
No one fathomed owning one.
Now we all talk away on Zoom.
High tech craziness. Oh what fun!

Things are moving at mega-super-speed.
People like Putin filled with incredible greed.
Sex traffickers are real and true.
I liked the old ways. How about you?
