Finding Gratitude
I stretch out my hands, my arms,
the full length of my body
and plunge into the pools of gratitude.
Letter of Forever
For centuries and millennia,
Imprinted with your rippled gaze
A thousand lifetimes we meet,
No less potent than the first.
The Sins of Our Holy Mother
Forgive me, children,
in my stained-glassed pride
I tried to hold us all together,
masking a disfigurement of peace—
Yet I’m aware of the consequences of becoming dependent on AI—just as we’ve become dependent on GPS, smartphones, and Google. We slowly disable our own abilities to memorize, investigate, and problem-solve.
