The rule about cheating is try not to cheat!

Good additions to the canon, everyone!

Hi Ros

I'll try harder to follow that rule in future.

You might be interested to know that I didn't add stuff, only removed duplicate lines and rearranged order.

Perhaps that makes it "found poetry".

Yes, I think so, og. I guess a googlepoem should be pristine as discovered.

It's one of those things that nags at you even while you're worrying about something more pressing...

All genuine, though I've no idea why.

Hi Ros

I also like your Google pregnancy poem. It is eminently publishable. An editor somewhere will want it. Good luck with it.

Best regards

Ros said,
Well, it's not as if I actually wrote it.
Please don’t give all the credit to the bot!

I’m thinking that you plucked that instrument you know so well—that living, pop-culture, ever-changing being out there—in a way that produced a poem. And wondering if that’s how a Muse plucks a poet.

Love this, Ros. It's playful, surrealistic and leftfield.
