automatic poem 7/5/2025

The circle of life, this 
Sea change 
Of mine? 
Life is good. 
May you live in interesting times; 
Look out, these are 
Very interesting times. 
Rough road 
To god. 
Us against the world, 
But we survived. 
We can do it. 
Can you believe it? 
Believe in yourself? 
That you matter? 
Our way of life the 
Captain and crew 
Steers clear of. On 
The day you were born there were 
Boat trips daily. 
On a day like today 
(A perfect day), you go 
Straight to the source, to the 
Course work.

automatic poem 6/28/2025

First and foremost, 

Step by step; 

Each and every 

Day by day, 

Lay down 

Your burden, 

Will of the wisp, 

As relevant now. 

An illusion 

Offering nothing.

automatic poem 6/21/2025

Your belongings’

Reasoning power,

Powers that be,

Are there any?

Limited time offer

By and large

Space between us …

And another thing

Time forgot.

automatic drawing 4/22/2025 - mom + dad

 


automatic poem 4/22/2025

I do indeed

Will whim:

Accomplish nothing

More and more,

By and by.

This place, more

Calmness in the face

Than all the stars

By my bedside.

All the time

The signs were there -

Activities of daily living,

Of life and death,

A life lived

Long after

Day is done.

automatic poem 2/23/2025

I wonder - 

May I ask? 

Learn my lesson 

To your point? 

Live well, 

The overriding argument: 

Abundant blessings. 

Life, on earth 

I wander. 

May I join you? 

Enjoy you? 

A true story 

Close to my chest. 

Contact information. 

With a look, 

God walked. 

This is why 

Day breaks 

And it is so. 

Be advised, 

Glad to be here 

In agreement. 

It feels good.

automatic poem 1/20/2025

That one time

I have a dream:

May flowers

Think positive.

Love what you do,

And so on.

Love conquers all

Will and testament.

Surround yourself,

Me, myself, and I.

That alone

I want to know.

May the road rise to meet you!

Think clearly!

Health is wealth;

And may I add -

Health always finds a way,

Will find you.

Come along

To the ends of the earth

Me hearties.

AI automatic drawing 11/18/2024

 

i gave chatgpt the following prompt:
"create an image that is an abstract composition based purely on the rule of thirds and the golden ratio."

its first attempt was super tacky - like, 80s office building art. i asked it to do it in watercolor and the result was also super tacky - all swirly and pastel. i had to do quite a bit of massaging with more prompts but ended up with some stuff i quite liked. 


one thing i could not get it to do no matter how i asked was shapes without outlines.

automatic poem 11/16/2024

Be here now, 
In a way. 
Accord yourself 
With everyone. 
The day we met 
Members only 
Of human bondage. 
My life as I knew it. 
Group according. 
Feel like 
The universe:
Strength in numbers 
Of mice and men. 
A question 
Consecrated by
Group identity.

automatic poem 11/10/2024

There it is - 

Can it be?

Be mine?

No words.

Failure is not an option.

I wish I may - 

May I

Live alone?

A lion among men?

More than you know:

Victorious at last,

Life giving.

automatic poem 7/28/2024

Love American style,

Yourself included;

For richer and for poorer - 

The choice is yours.

Amazing graces

Person to person.

You and only you

Are the one.
