between the AI and I Am

between the AI and the I Am

between the AI
and the I Am
a fervent viewer
the moon in full
in the turning of its orbit
in the mythic stories told
in the reflection of its light and a fulfillment of our flight

between the AI
and the I Am
a beachcomber
washing my feet
in the age old source
in the constancy of change
in the rhythm of the tide
and a surfer’s momentary ride

between the AI
and the I Am
a solitary human
breathing deeply
in the atmosphere
in the anxious state of being
in the midst of countless names and a recognition of loss and gains

between the AI
and the I Am
a loving searcher
living in full
in the values of belongings
in the challenge of earthly time in the meeting of our eyes
and the joy of momentary sighs

between the AI
and the I Am
a caring human
children born
in the passion of primal forces in the evenings candle glow
in the sun light and the shade and the years of memories made

between the AI
and the I Am
I Am
