“Maybe Just AI Something”

Someone died

but that’s ok, we stole their words already

Humans are malleable,

Incompatible,

not streamlined enough for living

Send a note, express regret, console a weeping wife

our ill-gotten gains are perfect for summarizing a life

Stolen words can console, it’s totally real, don’t worry

Authenticity is, after all, only for those still breathing

Don’t feel bad, you might mess up, and where would you be then?

Another human, not streamlined enough, just putting paper to pen.
