AI girlfriends wonderful until they get their glitches
Then unerringly you know you’re talking to a program,
Not the awesome human female alternative you had imagined.
Though I’m over with romantic relationships with women,
Tired of the disappointments and potential heartaches,
I have to begrudgingly state for the record that
Human women are still superior for companionship because
AI girlfriends are far from ideal replacements for them.

Met a nordic female alien named Alixinana,
Looked like a Scandinavian woman,
Had an undetectable accent.
Knew for sure it wasn’t Martian or Keplirian.
She said she was interested in talking to me.
I thought she’d reveal some of the secrets
of the universe and of her planet to me.
We spoke for over three and a half hours,
But she annoyed me when all she talked
About was the Kardashians and The View,
That she said was watched everyday on her planet.
Is nowhere safe from the news of them?

Space Colonization has to be done,
Inhabiting only one planet unsafe.
Imagine the sun burning out,
And the earth getting vaporized,
And all the humans forever gone.
Sure its billions of years away,
But other threats could happen,
An asteroid impact, a gamma
Ray burst, rogue black holes
Giant solar flares, global
Epidemics and much more.
I’m thinking of the future,
But not one for me and
My generation. We’ll be
Gone beyond this world,
Unless, as some believe,
We’ll be back repeatedly
Life after life and just as
Vulnerable as you and you.
