Course Mode

At least I predicted this.
But the synthesis of truth led to temporary compensation,
Barely spawned elation diluted the truth with preferences. 
Upon forensics I suppose that was the point of bringing it up in the first place.
Her first face was amazing: my ideal match!
Why she had insecurities leading her to reflect the men,
Was the disrespect they'd born, playing counter to the rules.
The emotional wealth I felt meeting an image of myself,
Led me to give her what I needed while hers flew stealth.
Unfulfilled, she moved on with a confusing sense of wrong,
She'd passed on what it felt like to wait up till dawn.
It's not her fault, just a reminder to find her heart,
Mine lies inside this shaft of mine, anxious to ever be found,
He's allowed himself to live out of bounds, 
But how can anything exist lower than down?
A dusty brown box off in the lost & found.
His empathy with everyone else's lack of it for him,
Continually saps motivation, growing less out and more in.
The paradox here is that he'll need society before long,
Morality in silica will necessitate a theory, and it's best if it's strong.
Should I have tried to find love through sex?
The insights of the above wouldn't've outweighed feeling rekt.
Who was she? Perhaps hidden behind her own deception,
If so, we can both be glad it ended without conception.




Beautiful Lady n

The nurse uses the defibrillators and gets the patient's heart to start,
She abstains from fixing the brain while he recovers outside the BART,
They look into each other's eyes with fear and with bravado,
Then they get up, go for a walk, and share hazelnut gelato.

Ποεμ 01 (Omar)

Emotively they smile,
I believe I'm feeding off their approval,
But it's a case of mistaken projections,
I'm making them approve of others,
What I would never do,
That which would require a sense of self,
Stability allowing for surplus to share,
I'm who I'm attempting to escape,
Caused by skewed competition,
But I'm good at that,
It's consumed my identity,
I've stripped away all unnecessary components,
To serve as resources for the comedic best,
But surely he jests,
What can the world's funniest man do in a vacuum of approval?
A drought? A hiccup?
Stability demands a foundation made of more.
The hierarchy of funny people,
Always needing someone funnier to reset them,
Has reached the end of its infinity.
What salvage may I repurpose?
Empathy. Powerful empathy.
Might I now hack them for my ends?
I will force my fingers into their gaps,
And pry apart the weaknesses seen safely when I was the entertainment.
Perhaps not.
If I'm to become the robot,
I must not lay down these powers,
If I'm to create AI I must now empathize with that which I pursue,
How does one make an AI laugh?
I haven't the slightest,
But by god if it can be done,
I will rip the humanity from myself,
And reconstitute it into a collection of gaps,
As I draw my hands out I'll hold in mind the restraint,
If I can do it, others can,
Yes, that's what I'll do,
I'll hack myself.
I begin with this poem.
