This poem hits with sharp honesty with calm music. Thelian Dream feels like a critique of modern dystopias...where hope is manufactured, sold, and then abandoned. The language is raw, rhythmic, and deliberately uncomfortable, which suits the subject perfectly. The final lines are especially powerful, showing how even after betrayal, the human instinct to dream refuses to die.
Thank you so much, Dawnithic, for your thoughtful reflection on Thealian Dream.
I think you got the memo... This is exactly how I felt while writing this poem.
These latest pieces are seriously affected by very obvious circumstances. I currently find our reality brutal and unpredictable. This is how I'm dealing with it.
This is powerful and sharp, especially how you capture broken promises and the quiet persistence of dreaming anyway. When you wrote this, were you thinking more about a personal experience or a broader cultural cycle youβre observing?
All I know is this... I'm buying the book when it's available for purchase.
And your AI accompanying vocal readings are off the charts!
Yes! One book sold. π
Your support is off the charts. Thank you! β¨οΈ
ππΎππΎππΎ I'm here for your level of creativity. For real.
Sam, are you signing this too? love the words and the voice makes me melt...
Hi Bougie! π I only wish... I create my soundscapes wit AI to give a 'pulse' to my dystopian poetry.
Love to have you as a reader. β‘
that AI voice is very good! but your poetry makes the song it fantastic
This got under my skin, and I think that was the point. Brilliant!
Really? Iβm glad you liked it more than found it disturbing.
Poetry can only be felt one way.
The right way. β‘

Hi Jonathan. π I appreciate your reflection on this poem.
I usually write about what I see around me, from my own perspective, and turn it into dystopian fantasy.
This piece I wrote after reading about Peter Thiel selling his AI stocks.
At the same time, I wrote couple of heavily related poems:
