Oh, nice. Love the rhythm and the way that you ran with alternate definitions. I wanted to be there.

I particularly like the last stanza's rhythm and words.

In response to "writing poetry be like"

Absolutely. I liked the herdier cats and like a simile, because I thought I was going to go with something like that until I started writing. I've loved reading your poetry this month, as always.

Yes, a poem can be all and then some, especially when it comes from your pen. I love reading your poetry and thanks for this April.

I love it. So many fun ways to explore what writing poetry is like. Some cats are indeed herdier than others!

It was wonderful to write with you this month.

Indeed, good questions! I'm glad your students were so engaged and also faced the truth of the difficulty!

In response to "The Secrets of AI"

Good call. Suspicion is here to stay.
When I first heard of AI, I rejoiced. Now, I'm not sure at all. Not AI, as an entity personally, but the companies who use it and do not train their employees well enough so they learn to use it for everyone's benefit.

I love how this creates beauty and maintains suspicion at once!

In response to "Taking a Shortcut "

I love the way that the narrator has slowed down and realized what she was missing by moving easily. Beautifully done.

So, AI's a poet, attempts to show it.
