Good morning.

This is Part 1 of my Experimental Poetry Criticism—
a prelude, a first movement.
Read it before Part 2 begins to unwrite it.

Ready or not— I am.

“The traditional model of creation → completion has, in many cases, given way to something more fluid, recursive, and continuous. The endurance of the idea… its refusal to conclude… is the work itself. Social media provides a stage for this endlessness, allowing the performance to loop…loop…loop…”

Dialectical Foxglove

This work explores how creation and critique can happen at the same time. The act of drawing becomes both discovery and analysis—each mark is a question and an answer. Like the foxglove plant, known for both its beauty and its poison, the image holds opposite forces at once. The work suggests that art doesn’t follow thought—it is thought, unfolding through every line.

Let us return to our own case, the duel between the visible and the invisible, the reporting of which threatens to carry us away. And let that which follows be the logical prologue of a highly meaningful adventure in which the cipher-concealing fables served as an excuse to the forces that would like to see me invisible, and which concealed my cipher beneath images of scandalous visibility.
—Jean Cocteau, Diary of an Unknown

X isn’t the Beckettian void —
it’s the echo chamber of the center,
speaking into silences that aren’t theirs.

influence feeds on borrowed quiet,
the struggle stylized.

the margins keep breathing
outside the feed, alive.

Platforms and the poem
not as a machine—
as a projection system.

makes it home.

It’s beyond cringe. There’s always a human behind the AI, every unethical act still starts with human intent. The machine isn’t calling the shots; it’s just carrying them out.
