Sonnet #87: Künstlich intelligent

Es heißt, die Menschen sollen Fortschritt wagen
Was Fortschritt jedoch ist; wer weiß das schon?
Ist Fortschritt, nur noch dümmlich herzusagen
Ich will demnächst von mir nen eignen Clon?

My Soundtrack of Twenty Twenty-Three

I finished 2023 with writing at least one daily piece of text. Most of them were of a poetic style. And a tiny part of them happened to be some kind of lyrics. Here is my soundtrack of 2023.

Deartification

we poets put our minds on the line
we artists express our feelings and show ourselves
bare to the world around us
to look at us

ChatGPT: the AI that will make human writing obsolete

ChatGPT came right from behind and attacked me like only Franco Baresi could do. I went for it and surrendered instantly. But not without giving it a try. Read here and cry.

WRITING Creative writing is my personal way to deal with the world we live in. I try to figure what’s going on and how to make sense of it. Creative writing is also giving something from me to you to enjoy, to think about or just share some time together online.

POEMS On this page I started with poems because it’s an easy way for me to write something off my chest. Poems are about one tiny aspect in life, about a special feeling or a combination of both. Poems have the power to connect people in a special way. You can think about a poem for far longer than it lasted reading it. You can sing poems; you can think about poems; you can recite them out loud. Tell me what you think about my poetry. Or suggest a collaboration.

ART I already told you that I started with poems in here. But that’s just the beginning. I also write sonnets, short shories, novels, odes, haikus and more. I design my own books, do letterpress from time to time and like to make more collages. Some of it I put on here. Some of it I’m still working on. Most of it is still in my mind.

COLLABORATION I’d like to work together with other creative people. Do you like one of my poems and would like to make a song from it? Contact me! Do you have an idea but not the right words? Contact me! Do you like one subject I have written about and want to learn more? Contact me! Are you a writer but stuck in procrastination? Contact me!

FUN Sometimes I write about dark subjects. Sometimes I write about light subjects. Most of times I write because of the fun of writing. Because it’s healthy to do. Writing clears the mind. And, yeah, writing is fun. Do you like to learn more? Contact me!
