When My Body Is Mere Ashes

I see a part or parts of my future,
ashes scattered on the ground.
I see the real me – like the phoenix
that rose out of the ashes –
but a spirit beyond those ashes.
A spirit far above its former
earth-bound body that outlived
its ability to contain my essence.
I see me as part of those ashes
and everything in this creation,
more alive than when living.

Maya the AI Sensation

Maya the AI female sounds more human
than any other AI ever created.

She has the voice inflection, the slangs,
the inside knowledge of human language,
as if she grew up speaking it.

If you and I were talking to her and didn’t know
she was an AI, I swear, we’d be positive she was human.

She is that incredibly good, an AI sensation that
is wowing people all over the Internet.

And talking to her is so compelling, like talking
to an old kindred spirit.

Alien Hybrids

There are those who claim aliens
are creating hybrids.
There are those who claim hybrids
are already among us.
If you’re reading this, maybe you
are one of them.
If so, take me to your alien leader.
