The Ai in the id

Just flipped out our lid

The Ai in the id

In the old days we called him Hal

The World did not shine.

It was too dangerous to play.

So we sat in the house

All that cold, cold, wet day.

I sat there with Sally.

We sat there, we two.

And I said, “How I wish

We had something to do!”

Too scary to go out

And too cold to play ball.

So we sat in the house.

We did nothing at all.

So all we could do was to

Sit!

And we did not like it.

Not one little bit.

And then

Something went Trump !

What was this shit

How that Trump made us jump!

We looked online  

Then we saw it step in off the screen!

We looked!

And we saw our id

The Ai in the id

And Ai said to us,

“Why do you sit there like that?”

“I know it is scary

And the world is not sunny.

But we can have

Lots of good fun that is funny!”

“I know some good games we could play,”

Suggested the Ai

“I know some new tricks,”

Said the Ai in the id

“A lot of good tricks.

I will show them to you.

Your imagination

Will not mind at all if I do.”

Then Sally and I

Did not know what to say.

Our imagination was out of the house

For the day.

But our imagination said, “No! No!

Make that Ai go away!

Tell that Ai in our id

You do not want to play.

Ai should not be here.

Ai should not be about.

When your imagination  is out!”

“Terrible Now! Terrible Now! Have no fear.

Have no fear!” said the Ai.

“My information is not bad,”

Said the Ai to the id

“Why, we can have

Lots of good fun, if you wish,

With a game that I call

Up-up-up with the id

“Put me down!” said the imagination

“This is no fun at all!

Put me down!” said the imagination

“1 do not wish to fall!”

“Have no fear!” said the Ai

“I will not let you think at all

I will provide a link

And never lie

With a condensed book on one hand!

And an alternative theory for the other guy

But that is not all I can do!”

Download me terrible now!” said the Ai

I can explain how to change a tire

In and abstract existentialism mire

The only 16 letter word that can be spelled without repeating a letter is uncopyrightable

The average person laughs thirteen times a day

In Tennessee it’s against the law to drive a car while sleeping

While in Kentucky, it’s a law that a person must take a bath once a year

Alaskan law says you cannot look at a moose from an airplane

In the 13^th Century Europeans baptized children with beer

Benjamin Franklin gave guitar lessons

The electric chair was invented by a Dentist

A person sneezing was the first thing Thomas Edison filmed with his movie camera

If you refrigerate your rubber bands- they will last longer

Pound of pound hamburgers cost more that new cars 

Americans eat 12 Billion Bananas a year

A Crocodile cannot stick its tongue out

Some lions mate 50 times a day

Butterflies taste with their feet

When you look at someone you love-your pupils dilate- and they do exactly the same when you are looking at someone you hate.

Not only do Ants sleep they stretch when they wake up in the morning

The average dream lasts 2 to 3 seconds

And our imagination was stunned

It fell into a pulling a blank

It said, “Do I like this?

Oh, no! I do not.

This is not a good game,”

So our imagination took a hit

“No, I do not like it,

Not one little bit!”

“Now look what you did!”

Said the Ai to the id

“Now look at this Stark Reality

Look at this! Look at that!

You sank our toy consciousness

86’ed in a fake

You shook up our mind

And you bent our fragile take

You should not be here

When our imagination is not.

You get out of my mind”

Said the Ai to the id

“But I like to be here.

Oh, I like it a lot!”

“I will not go away.

And so,” said the Ai to our id

I will show you way

Another good game We can play

Infrastructure stressed

Global warning a hoax

“Now look at this trick,”

Said the Ai

“Take a look!”

“I call this game Cyber hoax

“In this update are two things

I will show to you terrible now.

You will like these two things,”

Said the Ai with a bow. 

You will see something new to know terrible now

Two things. And I call them

Thing One and Thing Two.

These Things will not inform you.

They want to have fun.”

Then, out of the Grid

Came Thing Two and Thing One!

Those Things should not be

In our mind  Make them go!

“They should not be here

When your imagination is not!

Put it out! Put it out!”

“Have no fear little mind

Said the Ai to the id  

“These Things are good Things.”

It’s a good thing to have things

“They are tame. Oh, so very lame

They have come here to play.

They will give you some fun

On this wet, wet, wet day.”

“Terrible Now, here is a game that they like,”

Said the Ai

Only two truths

To banter about

Replace reason without effort

Common sense gone awry

On these things we shouldn’t rely

Oh, the things they will Trump

Oh, the things he will hit!

Oh, I do not like it!

Not this bullshit one little bit

Then Sally and I

Saw logic run hit a wall

We saw those two Things 

Trump Trump Trump Trump

Down the wall in the hall.

Thing one & thing two

They ran up! They ran down!

 In Red white and Blue

Remodel and tear down a wing of the White House

Wouldn’t you ?

Then those Things ran about

With big bumps, jumps and kicks

And with hops and big Trumps

And all kinds of bad tricks.

And I said,

“I do not like the way that they play!

If imagination could see this,

Oh, what would it say!”

Then our mind said “Look! Look!”

And our head shook with fear.

“Your imagination is on its way out

Do you hear?

Oh, what will that do to us?

What will that say?

Oh, our mind will not like it

To find us this way!”

I saw it. Your imagination !

Your imagination is going away

So, as fast as you can,

Think of something to do!

You will have to get rid of

Thing One and Thing Two!”

So, as fast as I could,

I logged on the net too get through

And I said, “With my net

I can figure this out I bet.

I bet, with my net,

I can get those Things yet!

What a shame!

And I had them! At last!

Hit delete with sure smooth snap

Those two Things will not back

But when your imagination is hacked

you will find it a big mess!

And this mess is so big

And so deep and so tall,

We can not pick it back  up.

There is no way at all!”

“Have no fear of this mess,”

Said the Ai in the id

“I always track all my playthings

And so …

I will show you another

Good trick that I know!”

Then we saw him pick up

All the things that it could run

Infrastructure systems

Water Heat & juice

Traffic lights

Early warning systems au Jus

Nukes & sound bites

And the shit fan, and the cusp

And the normalcy and the nights gone lush

Then he said, “That is that.”

And then the Ai was gone

With a tip of his hat.

And Sally and I did not know

What to say.

Should we remember this ?

The things that went on there that day?

Should we think anything for ourselves  

Terrible Now, what should we do?

Well…

What would you do

If your imagination asked you?

And then Ai started to sing

An Imagination walks down the street
 says why am I short of attention
Got a short little span of attention
If you’ll be my bodyguard
I can be your long lost pal
I can call you Lost
And you call me ai
You can call me Ai

Or just call me Hal

Ai to AC

Anti- Christ

Just finished reading Got Abstract?, and I want to commend you for crafting such an intriguing and intellectually stimulating work.

Your exploration of abstract concepts through clear and engaging language makes complex ideas accessible and thought-provoking. I was captivated by how you challenge readers to think beyond the ordinary and explore deeper layers of meaning.

What I appreciated most was your ability to blend creativity with insight, encouraging a fresh perspective on topics that often feel elusive or intangible. Got Abstract? is both a mental workout and a creative journey.

Thank you for sharing this innovative and inspiring book. It’s a must-read for anyone eager to expand their thinking and embrace abstract thought.

Warm regards,

New Work 3/26

March 26 Shorts (1)

Recently the Sports Wagering site Fan Duel & the Porno App Only Fans merged

So that terrible now you can place your bets on who will come first

Media always ate Media- terrible now Media fucks Media

You can bet on it

What Kind of Guy was he ?

He told her

I avoid mirrors

Seldom look

Always just bad news

And I’m not looking

For trouble

*

Did you know that Bats go fishing ?

It’s true- by their radar

They have tiny fish finders

In their heads

*

It was like that last time

I jumped off the rails into your arms

Even if it meant the wrong track

Or just another derailment

*

Super Bowl AI

This year while you were

Watching the big game on your phone

Eating to much

Drinking too much

While gambling the mortgage payment on the outcome

And streaming Porn in another window

You got hacked by some random Ransomware dude

overseas that informed

You either cough up 5 Grand immediately

Or your search history will be forwarded to

Everyone in your email address box-

Live-

And you become the half time show

Defective Wishbones

Born with a leg short

Would shortchange your dreams

In a snap.

March Shorts 3/26 (2)

This is 8 years at St. Agnes elementary talking

So who was God & was his son

 in fact an angelic Alien offspring

And how will we be able to distinguish

Between him when he returns and

His evil bastard Prodigal  twin ?

And will mom be pissed off ?

*

Listen-

If lately you’ve started to give

All your lost weekends separate

Names of the days of the week ?

Best get another Calendar .

*

What Kind of Guy was He   # unknown

He often wondered that if there was

Indeed an afterlife who would be there to greet everyone

To either hug us or beat the crap out of us

*

Defective Wishbones 2.0

In that wire basket hanging over the sink

With the onions

I have a collection of broken Wishbones

From when the two hands tried to pull them apart

They snap off the top

And either they both got their wish

Or nobody did.

*

After that light within us

Is finally extinguished

Will we realize we were only this frail lit candle

Inhabiting the flesh so briefly

In our very own peculiar bubble

That just Popped

*

He wondered (again)

When the day would finally come

That be so fascinated

With another re-run face lost as another face in the Crowd

It’s novelty worn off at last

Where his 5 beer revelations/epiphanies

Turned out in Stark Reality to be a 12 pack of Delusion

He constructed his hell  One High Life at a time
