To Be A Grain

Solitary grain insight
‘I’ speck
Infinity abound all
around ‘me’
Space time continuum
‘∞’ eternity
When did time
start winding up
When will rhyme
come to a stop
Dost Thy Poet
starts thee journey
To dust thee
Dye departs voyage

But yet that grain
grave be still exists
Petrified still till
when nobody knows
And where will it go
here before after
Thy verse evaporates
onto whisper wraith
Vanquish
amid a blank
devoid nevermore

Solitary grain
insight ‘I’ speck
Infinity abound
all around ‘me’
Space time
continuum ‘∞’ eternity
‘I’/∞

2)
'I'/∞

Merlin Magic
‘I’
Majestic Elocution Radiant
Luminescence Insight Nuances
/
Modulating Alight Geophysical
Inception Conception
∞



Reclaiming DD “David”

All poets fade and die. But the ones savvy to the 21st-century have posted their poems online where they will float for a very long time. But only until AI has no more use and/or the fragile HTML code and links that made them come to life get corrupted by radiation like miniature meteorites, will they be gone.

But if repeated, copied or made famous, to live on forever in the author's name.
