Let it kick in
Let it silence the thoughts in my mind
The fog rolls into my mind and no thought can be heard
Nothing to be felt
My body? Exhausted from the pain
I try to smile through it
And you all fall for it
But most days I can't even breathe
There is no hunger
No craving for anything
Except to be utterly numb to the core
Sleep evades me
Everything is flavorless
So, I wait for the feeling to sink in
The fog rolls in and I am no longer here
I no longer exist
Tears no longer fall from my eyes
I am no longer here.

A Letter to the Firestarter
Dear Firestarter, We can all see you, we've been watching you since you began. In case you didn't know we were here before you and we will be here after. We witnessed your rise, your setbacks, your guilt and your lies. We witnessed you start the fire.

~ Fired ~
— Ai Intrusion ~ Are you Next ~ Is Ai Evolution after your job? — Few workplaces haven't been affected. Ai is in supermarkets, at doctors' offices, and even monitoring farms. I just can't think of anything this machine is not getting into, can you? For instance: Education ~ Law and Tech jobs will one day have a major influence or be taken over by these inanimate machines, with accuracy and vigor. From mechanics' diagnoses to a wide variety of everyday jobs, including fast food workers, with this input having the ability to cut their unnecessary work hours. I'm certain all of us have been touched by this with our short stories and colorful headings, have you? Even comments are very questionable 'Non-Robot' insertions.
