Do you see the void?
It’s hidden, nice and deep.
The hole goes on for miles,
The rim slippery and steep.
I’ve learned to hide the darkness,
To cover up the hole.
A smile here, a quick laugh there,
Hides the despair within my soul.
But there is one who is no fool.
She knows that smile well.
My girl, my sweet, she sees too deep!
My smile does not sell.
This gift, this love, what will I do?
Why have I been so blessed?
Make my heart forever true,
Oh, One who loves me best!

A Letter to the Firestarter
Dear Firestarter, We can all see you, we've been watching you since you began. In case you didn't know we were here before you and we will be here after. We witnessed your rise, your setbacks, your guilt and your lies. We witnessed you start the fire.

~ Fired ~
— Ai Intrusion ~ Are you Next ~ Is Ai Evolution after your job? — Few workplaces haven't been affected. Ai is in supermarkets, at doctors' offices, and even monitoring farms. I just can't think of anything this machine is not getting into, can you? For instance: Education ~ Law and Tech jobs will one day have a major influence or be taken over by these inanimate machines, with accuracy and vigor. From mechanics' diagnoses to a wide variety of everyday jobs, including fast food workers, with this input having the ability to cut their unnecessary work hours. I'm certain all of us have been touched by this with our short stories and colorful headings, have you? Even comments are very questionable 'Non-Robot' insertions.
