AI Misinformation


Nary a flake falling but

my smartphone insists otherwise.


Maybe I carry a "not-so-smart"

like "Marilyn" to "Marinate"

"Biscuit" to "Brisket"

"Binhammer" to "Ben Hammer"

"Semi" to "Semite"


turning messages into messes,

sending drivers down swampy roads,

losing signals in enchanted forests,

allowing spam with hidden scams,

ending conversations with ghosting,

flaring the flashlight without warning,

claiming sun when gloominess won.


Precipitation may appear on the app

              the rust of winter.
