This is the only time I've found AI interesting
But it's mostly trash
I can't believe humanity is going down this path
Loved this TV show when I was a kid
But Elon is a fraction of the man I thought he was
Really disappointing
We can't leave the earth
Elon could solve most of the world's problems with his wealth
He could fund clean drinking water for the whole of Africa
Instead he wants a bloody moon base
Add to that all the deranged politics of his
Shitshow
I have to STOP! everything but poetry now
My commitment will be insane
Every spare moment for the rest of my life
If I live another 20 years
I'll fit 70 or 80 years of a regular poet's life into that time
That will make up for lost time
After dabbling when I was younger
I went to Cornwall for 8 weeks exactly 35 years ago to seriously do poetry
But it didn't work out
And I became distracted afterwards
And tried all different kinds of stuff
I might have to be a homeless poet for a while
I might have to go out with poetry just like Bodhi with his surfboard too
So be it
Prepare your consciousness, kooks!
I hope you know what I mean
I'm only writing free verse now
No rhymes
It doesn't matter what the subjects are
Individual "great" poems won't matter so much
The only concession to the modern poetry world will be not using capitals for each new line
That's what editors seem to want
And I don't mind
But just one thing
I'm aiming for the greatest ever verbal poetic texture
You dig?
Also,
Trying to be more spiritual and mystical
Important to cut out all influence from TV, music, YouTube etc
Even if you watch a film you love
Bad things from the film might appear in your dreams
Control your consciousness, kooks!
And dreams
I used to have loads of mystical music dreams
When I was playing my guitar
4 or 5 hours a day
But I've only had a few poetry dreams
If I do poetry all the time now
With a controlled consciousness
I should be able to have loads of poetry dreams
Maybe with access
To the Akashic Records
I told you about my dead uncle giving me the manuscript of a "new" Yeats poem
I reckon they've put him in charge
Probably got the job because of who I am
You dig?
I'm going to watch one last film tonight
Something light and entertaining
Maybe Carry on Screaming
No don't fancy that
Any suggestions?
Maybe I'll listen to Apollo one last time
???
