goodbye has swept me off my feet
I landed awkward but surprisingly free

I too have uttered 'goodbye'
setting someone free

freedom can be a stranger
and strange freedom can be

Не люби меня,
Прошу, не трогай
                             меня (словно
ядовитый плющ),
Но
позволь мне
пробежать босиком
по утренней
росе и погладить
виноградную лозу, когда
она цветёт,
позволь мне
напиться дневными
лучами,
и я уложу тебя
спать, как птицу в
гнезде,
для тебя
я буду держать
все летние дожди в
своих объятиях,

…только для тебя
я буду носить все
летние дожди, я
буду носить их
в своих объятиях,
как пылающее
сердце...

"Love", doesn't make you down,
   If, "True", you've found.
In a far off distance stands a man
He is alone
On a desert-plain surrounded
by sand and sun

In the sky burns a bright yellow sun against a bright blue sky
No clouds can be seen

On his face is a big, bright smile
Surrounding him is a circle of bright light
And as he moves forward
the light follows him on and on
to his next destiny

Oh, if only he will be to see me

To want more than you’re given,
To see more than you can reach,
To love with no place to put it.
But most of what surrounds you can’t or won’t meet you there.
That mismatch?
That’s the curse.

Speaks on
Grok 4 Chatbot
A giant leap towards
Artificial intelligence
Complete freestanding
Autonomous being
Super humanoid
AI can
duplicate
Every mannerism and nuance
Of any person on earth
an uncanny
Simulacrum
AI is a perfect mimic
To the untrained eye
Yet.                 AI is
nothing                  more
than.                            A
poor                                man’s
copy                                        Of
God’s.                                     Creation

I Actually wrote this poem for July 9 and already had the word of the day for the 14th unbeknownst to me so I suppose it’s fortuitous
BLT Websters word of the day challenge
July14 nuance
A nuance is a very small difference in something such as color, tone, meaning
And bonus
July 9, 2025 Simulacrum
A superficial likeness of something usually as an imitation, copy, or representation.
