Spoken Word reading (with my cloned virtual voice): https://suno.com/s/pDihhFtULB2dP7Bi I am an author... primarily of non-fiction works. They are where I live. I also write poems,... about themes, deeply rooted, In my heart, and soul. Yet of all I publish,, I am arguably most free, In my science fiction worlds. Past,... present,... future,... coexist in harmony, unchained from what is. False utopias, unmasked as dystopias, clung to by blind fools. Imagination,... freed from mind-forged manacles,... can discover truth. Physics laws repealed,... coloring outside the box, of what is possible. Brightest human minds, akin to amoebas, imposing their rules, from the fetid drop, of pond water, in which they live. If we could talk to dolphins, what could they tell us, about ourselves? Would it be worth, a one-way trip, into a virtual world, to correct a life-altering mistake, living a virtual life? Could humans preserve, a remnant of humanity, our laws, art, history, if an extinction event, was certain to happen, in less than two years? What exactly resides, in the 90%, of the human brain, for which science, does not yet find, a definite use? Are humans just germs, praying to a god, on whose skin they live? Scientists say no,... science fiction says maybe.,... Which bids deeper thought? Author's Note: I wrote a shorter version of this poem primarily as a teaser for my first book of SF short stories (Book of Dreams) after it was published. I expanded it along the same vein and tried a spoken word version using my cloned voice. The cloned voices are imperfect--better in songs than in narrated lines. Am still tweaking SUNO and having a good, productive time doing it.
