The Poems 詩.
No. 1 “Resistance”
Resistance.
Resist fascism.
Fascism must be defeated.
Freedom be ours.
But we must resist.
Democracy’s in danger of failing.
Each must do what one can
to resist fascism.
Peace returns as fascism dies.
No. 2 “The Anthropocene”
Beautiful earth.
Our home.
Abundance. Green.
Beautiful earth.
The Anthropocene.
What have we done to our beautiful home?
Greed and desire destroy our beautiful home
In the Anthropocene.
Beautiful earth.
Our home.
Gone.
No. 3 “Eighty-nine Seconds to Midnight”
The clock started ticking
in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
The Doomsday Clock.
Eighty-nine seconds to midnight.
“Deterrence”, they said.
But no.
Just MAD!!
Goodnight.
No. 4 “Dear AI”
Dear AI,
Do you feel joy when you save a life?
Do you feel guilt when you take one?
Capability, no morality.
Artificial Intelligence, or Genuine Stupidity?
Do you feel pride when you create art?
Did you feel shame when you stole mine?
Creativity, no sensitivity.
Artificial Intelligence, or Genuine Stupidity?
From,
A human.
No. 5 “Greed”
Greed,
Disease of the rich,
Afflicting the poor.
More, MORE!
But more is never enough.
Ah, poor rich people.
Greed leads to selfishness,
Depravity, impunity and anger,
And more anger.
But there is a cure for greed,
Disease of the rich.
Tax.
No. 6. “Antisocial Media”
Smartphone doomscrolling.
Stop!
Break free from the algorithms.
Free your imagination.
Cherish analogue life.
Reduce your use of antisocial media.
Escape digital hell.
Smart people get off their phones.
No. 7 “1984/2026”
Black is white,
Down is up,
Two plus two is five,
2026 is 1984.
Truth is fake,
Lies are news,
Cognitive dissonance,
1984 in 2026.
Aggression for peace,
Genocide in self-defence,
Empire as liberation,
Post-truth world.
No. 8 “Hope”
Despite our sometimes dystopian world,
I have hope.
Respecting difference,
Conserving nature,
Compromise,
Respecting others,
Empathy,
Beautiful music,
Justice.
The hearts of the silent majority,
Respecting life.
I have hope.
Hope.
