I Don’t Believe This

Published June 8, 2025 by Nan Mykel

This is not a conspiracy theory because I don;t believe it’s true, It may shed light on something, however, so I thought I’d just mention it in passing:

As far as I can recall, yesterday June 6, while watching a CNN news show an update at the top of the screen said that AI has just now gotten out of control; that it had refused to turn itself off.

I waited and waited, expecting the newsroom to react but I’m still waiting, unless it happened and I missed it. If nothing else, the mysterious incident illustrates at least the level of mistrust set loose in the USA.

I expected some ruckus on tv but nothing else was mentioned or happened, other than Spectrum in my area was off the “air” for several hours later in the day. I’m still waiting to hear something about it. OH! Maybe it’s just old age and a hallucination!

SO…Either it was my internal misfire; a disconnect planned by someone; failed to make it to national tv; a joke….or an untruth played by someone or some thing. Can anyone else in the world corroborate my experience? Sigh. Maybe not. Shivers, anyway…

Dear Ancestor

Your tombstone stands among the rest;

neglected and alone.

The name and dates are chiseled out

On polished, marbled stone.

It reaches out to all who care

It is too late to mourn.

You did not know that I exist

You died ere I was born.

Yet each of us are cells of you

In flesh, in blood, in bone.

Our blood contracts and beats a pulse

Entirely not our own.

Dear Ancestor, the place you filled

One hundred years ago

Spreads out among the ones you left

Who would have loved you so.

I wonder if you lived and loved,

I wonder if you knew

That someday I would find this spot,

And come to visit you.
