People who use generative AI to skim past creative things the rest of us have to work at fundamentally do not comprehend the most basic elements of the relationship between art and the human mind and spirit They are denying themselves the greatest pleasures of it and that’s sad and also pathetic

A small but very deep thing that bothers me about generative AI as a shortcut to practice and work and skill is the basic assumption that it’s impossible to take pleasure in a creative pursuit that you aren’t very good at and I assure you that is not the case

Transgenderism as a Hive of Hornets NDR @apocalypsepoet.bsky.social 31 of wim's favourite poems from kith books #SealeyChallenge 30/31
Transgenderism as a Hive of Hornets

I STAND UPON PRECIPICE OF ETERNITY
EDGE OF THIS NORMALITY / SADNESS
LIKE HIVES IN MY BODY / STEP FOOT
INTO DUGOUT / WHERE NEST WITHERS
WITHIN / EMPTY LOAM / GRAVEL IN
MY SHOE / I WAS BAREFOOT / STEPPING ON
NETTLES / MYTHIC DRAW OF CHARCOAL
VISION / WHEN THE BOY IN ME FOUGHT
TO DIE / I FOUND FETAL PETALS FLOWERING
DOWN FROM TOPS OF TREES / LANDING IN
MY LONG HAIR / A SWARM OF HORNETS IS
EXPLOSIVE / MY SEX LIKE MOLOTOV /
VAPOROUS AROMATIC INCENSE SMOKE
FROM THE GROUND LEAVES STINGS
IN ABDOMENS / AS MUCH AS IT CAN
I DON’T WANT TO BE A MAN /
MECHANISM TO DIG NEST / FROM GROUND
MY GREATEST FEARS / HORNET EXPLODING
FROM DEEP WITHIN MY GIRL CHEST /
BECOMING A WASP IN THE VOID / WHERE
MY MASCULINITY USED TO BE / TODAY
I STOOD AT THE END / SAW MY MOVEMENT &
/ TEARS OF ECSTASY / AT MIRRORED BODY
BEFORE ME.

I guess I am still a little shellshocked by talking to literally hundreds of people who were like "I want to be a novelist but I don't read novels" "I want to publish my essay collection but I don't read essays" "I want to be a poet but I don't read poetry"

Rooted, muddied, and lost to the snow, Roberts parallels the stuttering progression of flora and fauna as we make our tandem entangled r/evolutionary way through the world. @apocalypsepoet.bsky.social

I love a poem with couplets that have wild second lines. Give me "Everyday he ate the same breakfast: / fourteen love letters folded into paper airplanes" alllllll day. Business in the front, fantasy in the back. Little poetry mullets. Tiny tugboats dragging leviathans into the harbor.
