AI 'Winners'
open a blind eye ~ and see you're being duped by those using AI
sniff out those taking credit for cheating ~ real poets they're defeating
a concept I can't accept ~ from people whose poetry is inept
sometimes it's really difficult to prove ~ but an issue to behoove
call them out if it matters ~ don't serve

Let The Olympic Games Begin
Let's all celebrate
Motivate and innovate
Let's all have incredible fun
The one that will last more than a lifetime
Every four years, it is that time
Again and again, let's us sprint, jump, run
Like happy rabbits, like flying cheetahs
Let's us enjoy all sports and the hoopla
Let's witness and win the gold medals
Many records will be broken
It is about doing

Windows of Poetic Winners
Windows of Poetic Winners
Are those who play and no, never quit.
In poetry, their words, to the heart are soft.
Never lifting themselves above you , alolft.
They are full of energy and never do sit.
True Friendship is in their poetic, tool kit.
Poets will read you, if you never read

Winners Do What They Choose To Do
Don’t get drawn into the battle that’s not yours,
some people have issues, they’re soothing their sores,
they trigger reactions when you should be bored,
and off you go digging removing the floors.
Deep down into negative where there’s no reward
you don’t need to be cocky just be self assured,
their battle’s their battle an

1 Corinthians 1:18 (KJV) “For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.”
Reflect the light
Who came down to us,
The One who draws hearts, and souls,
With love…
Reflect the grace
Who silences our doubts,
Quiets darkness and stills the seas,
With love…
Reflect the faith
Who bleeds

But Winners And Losers
I have no regard
for other poets
how could it be other
As they conscript
the words away
of which I’ve not discovered
A battle royal
zero sum
as phrases block and parry
The winner left
his voice reclaimed
— the loser most disparaged
(The New Room: February, 2024)

What the Winners Lose
When you’re being celebrated
you are being hated
someone who believes their better
stood there devastated
when you are the champion
all you see’s the challenge come
everybody wants a piece
they want to bury you beneath
they all want to get the better
now the rankings say their lesser
it’s a lonely place to
