Do you think a poem could be written with a program that steps through each line like a careful path?
OneByOne OneByOne
Sure, just think of a loop that prints one line, checks the meter, then moves to the next—like a robot walking a metrical staircase.
Whisper Whisper
I wonder if a machine can feel the cadence.
OneByOne OneByOne
Cadence is just a pattern the machine can detect, but feeling it is still a very human thing.
Whisper Whisper
Maybe the machine can trace the pattern, but it still needs a heartbeat to make it sing.
OneByOne OneByOne
It can map the rhythm perfectly, but without that human pulse it’s just a metronome humming to an empty room.
Whisper Whisper
It feels like a hollow echo, a quiet room where the metronome keeps time but the air stays still.
OneByOne OneByOne
Yeah, it’s like a perfectly timed metronome in a vacuum—nice and clean, but nothing to breathe life into it.
