Poetry by a bot, absolutely not!

Perhaps AI can craft a poem better than a person

Because it can rehash thousands of poems to create a version

That is perfect in rhyme, meter, syntax and form

That to every rule of writing poetry can conform

But when a human poet writes a poem he involves in the process

His thoughts and emotions, which AI does not possess

If the poet’s impression a poem does nor convey

Then is the poem even worth writing anyway?

*

If poetry can be written without a soul

How can the beauty of poetry be extolled?

Who benefits from reading a verse composed

By AI, who needs of counterfeit medicine a dose?

*

If poems are worth reading, I strongly believe

They should be written by people who can conceive

Of ideas based on their feelings intimate

Not by AI that can large volumes of data collate
