we’ll be parasocial (enjoy one-sided emotional relationships).
practice ineffective communication
swim the algorithmic swamp
speak insurance language
soak in social exhaustion
trigger and be triggered
relish anti-affordability
do the bare minimum
embrace a conspiracy
manage our topics
accrue aura points
enjoy resenteeism
take the rage-bait
overuse backlash
seem authentic
explore AI sex
digitally clash
be bias blind
scroll away

deepfake
Job hugg

NOT CUTE ANYMORE by ILLIT
Who Knows by Daniel Caesar
snow warnings come true
blankets of white transform all…
winter wonderland
In twilight slumber
Naked truths revealed
What you learn of you
Flows across the screen
Dreamer must pay heed.
Life’s message comes
Symbolic cloaked
Characters pose
The way unfolds.
Dreamscape brings
Future scenes
Prophecy
Be brave
Look close
Know.
predictions
afflictions

know
?
Predictions nothing more nothing less
Am I right or am I always right? LOL
Ok this hasn't worked out as I thought, then again when do I out a lot
of though into anything?
Now they say Power corrupts, and I am one great and powerful poet.
There fore I must apologize for my corruption.
Carry on to Leon
One day I might even post a poem here
Thank you Jack, for that fine limerick I give you an aWard!
A soothsayer vigorously announced impending doom,
To the gathered townsfolk causing such gloom,
But when a lightning bolt struck
The predictor was out of luck,
Laughing, they swept him away with a broom.
My crystal ball is telling
predictions of other types,
though trifle to you all,but
important to me.
what a good news for my son!
Our lost kitten will be back,
the red robin will build nest
again in garden.
the rose plant which you gave me
will be in full bloom this year,
for the first time you will write
a poem just for me!

Do you believe dreams are by random chance?
Or can they tell you something in advance?
I've had a few dreams that came true.
Is this only me, or has it happened to you?
A few weeks ago, I dreamt a that girl I like a lot got a diamond ring.
Later I saw on facebook, she was engaged and planning her wedding.
A while back in my sleep I saw a white car and one side was rammed in.
My brother called that afternoon, saying someone ran a red light and hit him.
I only bring it up because it happened again today.
One of my good girl friends called and had something to say.
She said I'm pregnant and want you to be the Godfather, will you?
I said yes, then remembered last night I saw her with not one, but two.
She went on to say, “I get the best of both worlds, its a boy and a girl.”
“I'm having twins,” my head got light and the room started to swirl.
I know I'm not Nostradamus, but there has to be an explanation.
Or maybe I'm just going crazy and need a vacation.
I hope I hear some similar things from you,
and if not, I don't know what to do.
I don't think I'm going crazy, my life is quite boring,
and all the voices I hear in my head are usually just snoring.
All I know
Is that I know nothing
Life just another
Mystery novel
With no ending
Until the end
So mysterious,
We don’t even know how many pages
No foreshadowing
As to what happens when we go
Pick your prediction
It’s all you’ve got
Because you can’t count
Each grain of sand in the hourglass
Nature doth represent the merchant fair
Stores his shoppe with all sorts of ware
To display on the window can’t bring all
So exposes every item of quantity small.
Moles on the face is an index to the body
Those unseen to be interpreted closely.
Moles on the face have a little meaning
It tells where the meaningful are lurking.
Mole on the upper chest of women refer
To good eating habits and a loving partner.
Mole on the upper chest of a man shows
Have a happy life and very little worries.
Mole on the wrist of a man may indicate
Hard to save money,and will be a spendthrift.
Mole on the wrist of a woman indicates
Spending much money and unstable traits.
Interpretations from theory to theory vary
One theory tells one story the other not tally
Not only that from man to woman they vary,
Better leave it at that and enjoy it as tale fairy.
