there is a company
that makes a product
called the love detector
using voice analysis
they claim to be
96% accurate
using this technology
they also make a
lie detector
that tells not only
if a person is lying
but why
how ironic
that love and lies
are similarly indicated
they even built their
lie detector
into a pair of
sunglasses
no more
she loves me
she loves me not
no more
I don't know if
I can trust you
no more
I thought you loved me
no more
why must you constantly lie?
no more
I don't know if I love you
you don't even have to be
in the same room
to plumb the truth
of the suspect's intentions
just give them a call
poets will need new fodder
henceforth
feel free to confess
your deeply hidden love
knowing that the object of your desires
returns your burning passion
and you'll only look like an idiot

Maria2394about 20 years agothat the cynical tone of the piece and the use of a good deal of hard consonant sounds make this seem sort of detached and noncomittal, but I think it is still poetic, if read with the right disposition :)
WickedEveover 20 years agoHonestly, this doesn't really read like poetry. It seems to be more like a news article with line breaks to give it the appearance of poetry... especially in the beginning. At least, it reads that way to me.
Though, I do believe with a little work it could sound more poetic. It's interesting enough material to make it worth a revision.
