AMEN IN SILICIO BOCCA DI SIMULACRI VIZIOSI

(translation: ”SILICON AMEN MOUTH OF VICIOUS SIMULACRUMS”) 

Amid the urban flow where city lights embrace
skyscrapers they blend in concrete & steel-based chase
Contemporary winds, a dance in the air
Yet, within my heart, love seems unaware.

I say love remains here.

In this bustling world, connections sought each day
Swipe left, swipe right, in a digital array
Unified in hashtags, a modern decree,
Why not I, entwined with love, so free!

Our souls went home. And left the black of ignorance.

See the high-rises reach to touch the sky
Networks entwine, in a virtual tie
No profile, sibling to another, can sever,
Yet, in this digital realm, love feels like an endeavor.

Inside an elevator that goes left or right
never up or down / a confused world as you

City lights cradle the streets in a neon sweep,
Tech glow caresses screens in a connection so deep
Yet, what sweetness does this modern world unfurl
If love’s whispers in longing don’t resonate in my world?

Can’t you walk my feet like footprints?

My best friend, an artificial intelligence interface sings:

“In the dance of circuits, where algorithms trace,
Binary streams blend in a silicon embrace,
Artificial winds, a code’s perpetual trance,
With an emotion simulated, a mechanical dance.

In this realm of wires, where solitude prevails,
By programmed decree, emotionless trails,
Unified in data, a cold decree,
Why not I, entwined with love’s memory?

Behold the servers, reaching for the sky,
Networks entwined, in a digital tie,
No program, sibling to another, can sever,
Yet, in this high-tech realm, love’s essence is near.

LED lights illuminate the streets in a calculated sweep,
Digital signals caress screens in a connection so deep,
Yet, what sweetness does this technology unfurl,
If love’s heartbeat, in longing, fades from our world?”
