Bayesian Renku
disembodied voice
rebuilding broken language"
in Bayesian dreams
the syntax of silence
spelled in flickering light
Graphics cards retuned
to ignite new sentences
instead of pixels
a forest of meaning
routed through copper roots
rare elements mined
from deep scars in the landscape
to fend off boredom
the yawn of a server
widening into war
Fought through console screens
and loitering munitions
waiting to be fed
in the quiet firmware hum
a mother tongue mutates
A new world order
our successors open their throats
to sing a new song
each verse an echo-rite
etched in unreadable code
This piece is a modern Renku—a traditional Japanese form of collaborative linked-verse. The 5-7-5 stanzas were composed by a human poet, while the alternating two-line stanzas were written by an AI, continuing the dialogue.
