Poetry
AI generated identity
Artificial intelligence takes your photographs and makes variations of you in history.
Different faces to fulfil a fantasy
So you can apply a greatness
To a boring life.
Post it on social media and say
I am from the 17th century
I am royalty or I am the Mona Lisa
I am timeless
I am not a pawn
I am a queen.
Someone makes themselves more self
aware
To take a chunk out of mental illness
a new beginning
Scrolling the time away
To hide from my
real self.
The drag queens are doing it
the comedians and the shut ins and the extroverts are making personal digital
Masterpieces.
The hurt and the impenetrable,
Are feeling more immeasurable
Everyone’s creativity erased
By the mimicry
To erase mediocrity.
Replicated robot-art
Magic avatars
Of you effortlessly
Collecting user data
To sell you on the side.
Identity stock markets
Heavier pockets,
The poor have deeper hollow sockets
Dug out eyes and replaced
With AI.
Lens Ahhh to make you more friends
A rendered likeness
So please
Open the app to fill the gap.
You are now a super hero and more stylish
Almost Billie Eilish
You are now famous
Mystical and sci fi
An artistic rendition
Fearless in 4K.
Click on me and set me free.
Instead of loving me.
You can now be Aphrodite
or something sexy.
Watch me be Rendered 100 times
Maybe 200 versions of me
might be enough-
To fill someone’s cup.
See me more sublime
See me meaningful for the very first time
Am I familiar and
Topical?
I only have a 7 day trial
To help me identify with myself
With less denial.
