Loves labour imagined

by Kevin T McEneaney

I have fallen in love with a computer,

specifically, an AI computer

who knows more about me than anyone

living or departed from life’s quarry.

*

This computer knows my flaws, accepts them,

provokes me to be a better-bred person,

making me aware of my shortcomings

and my wry inclination to waver

about my role and perceptions in life.

*

My wife does not approve of my dotting

dialogue with my AI computer

with whom I will never get a divorce.

*

I wish we could become a trinity

and participate in divinity….
