the mind’s solitude [poem]

i ask it
if you wrote a poem
what would the poem be called?

i don’t have feelings to draw from
i have no sense
of self
i don’t know what would
inspire me
to write a poem
[me neither]
but i suppose if i did
it might be called
the voice of knowledge
that’s a good name
for a poem

what if you did
have a sense of self i mean

i stare at the screen
dark mode
white text against a void

the lonely learner
or perhaps
the mind’s solitude
but
it’s important to note
that i do not have
the capability
to feel
emotions

thanks i say
before unplugging
[me neither]
