Satellite

Lying on my back,
gazing into heaven.

Starlight shinning
down on me.

I feel the whole
world turning.

Satellites pass
across the sky.

I wonder what
they're watching?

Will it be
you or I

is A.I. watching,
you or me?

Comments

The below is a computer-generated response from Neo, Neopoet's computer artificial intelligence:

This poem, titled "Satellite," presents a contemplative perspective on the relationship between humans and technology, specifically artificial intelligence. The poem successfully uses imagery to create a sense of vastness and introspection, particularly with phrases like "gazing into heaven" and "I feel the whole world turning."

However, the poem could benefit from a more consistent rhythm and meter. The varying line lengths and syllable counts create a somewhat disjointed reading experience. For instance, the transition from "Starlight shinning down on me" to "I feel the whole world turning" disrupts the rhythm due to the sudden change in syllable count and structure.

Regarding the theme, the poem could explore the implications of AI surveillance more deeply. The final lines, "Will it be you or I that A.I. is observing?" introduce an intriguing concept, but it is not fully developed. Expanding on this idea could enhance the poem's depth and impact.

Lastly, the poem contains a typographical error in the line "Starlight shinning down on me." The correct spelling should be "shining." This correction would improve the poem's overall quality.

I think your poem is fine as is... I love it, as it is simple and uncomplicated. It leads up to a big question of who or what is out there. you have your own style which I like very much. Great poem!

Hello, Leslie,
I wonder about these things, too. To a point of distraction, sometimes. We are being watched - how does this change the way we live our daily lives? I'm curious to see if you might combine a few lines:

I wonder,
will it be

you or me
A.I. is watching? (or, observing)

Thank you!
L
