You are your own curator
What does your archive say?
Your most valued selections
Will predict the game you play
May I copy to my scroll
That to which you adhere?
My library is starting bare
And I need a new idea
Cross-reference the index
Let’s build up our research
Combine all our best thoughts
And share for all to search
You are your own curator
Garbage in makes garbage out
Information overload
Fills everything with doubt
Inspired by a David Elikwu newsletter
18th Apr 2025 – Shared with Poets and Storytellers United – this poem is tangentially connected with the theme of ‘youth has no age’.

Sigh. I get too many bot-written books in the e-mail.
Nice poem, anyway.

It’s time I upgrade the filter in there! I’d rather spend less time ruminating on things that don’t serve me.

I read this as a comment on the poem at first. Either way, it’s progress!

Ha, I guess at any age garbage depends on one’s own definition.

We all have algorithms inside us and learn but reading, copying and being inspired by others.
