If A.I. Was Your Girlfriend

Elon Musk and every other billionaire tech bro
have redesigned human relationships as the best
a man's money can buy, with the available technology.

Their new fashion for avowedly heterosexual men,
who fantasize about real women, the reality of whom
ensures that the unreality of the men do not stand a chance,  
is the ever amenable and always changeable A.I. girlfriend.

There the man chooses her design, based in real life models
he has met where men can think once, twice, and think again,
about the design of the ideal A.I. woman of their choice
who will never complain that the man is a fantasist: if she did
then the A.I. woman would cease to exist as the man's fantasy.

  

Competitive Insanity

As The Autocrats Club selects new members
from across the world, neighbour of Russia -
Georgia - is the latest where the vote has been counted,
and consensus as evidenced with the shrunken freedom
of the press in the reports that do get released, the competition
for the most destructive and insane leadership of the year
still remains a hot race between the hidden hand of Hamas,
the military and propaganda power of Likud, and the lameness
of The Republican Party in America. There, for all three,
every reason why they can't do exactly what they want
is somebody else's fault, for anyone other than them to fix. 

Between Words And Actions

As world leaders pronounce
about the world they want to see,
putting the 'me' into the media 
before an audience that is tailored
by the advertising revenue their words earn,
we should note that whilst speeches
start and stop on television, the wars
that are started by all these words 
take a lot more than mere speech
to stop once the arms are taken up.     

Ineffective Democracy

We have a choice of reasons for being shocked
by modern politics, we can be appalled
by people who register to vote but refuse
to enter the polling booth and make use of it,
not even to invalidate their ballot card, or be appalled
by people voting in their thousands. But by the nature
of the list of candidates, whoever the voters choose,
their vote makes no difference to the overall result.

It Is Being So Contrary

That keeps me most consistent.

far more than we realise....
