Poetry is POWERFUL.

Since creating poetable, I've found myself subscribed to a few email lists to get in the hang of it,  and have come some amazing poems ... each so different,  so awakening or unexpected.  So unAI. So out of my norm and wheelhouse,  yet totally relatable

Take logo creation for example...

Way back in the day I painstakingly created a moving animated gif dot by slow dot - I came across it the other day in my old files. And it still runs, but, oh, it's showing its age. As things have got easier and easier to accomplish online and with the tools built into standard Windows or Mac operating systems, I find my self still going back to the old fav MSPaint! Some things the new editors just take a lot more steps to accomplish...

One of the best newer tools is Google's Draw - which allows layering that the more complex paid editors are known for. And I find it so intuitive. These two aren't really winners - and loook too much like a new currency symbol..

Now if there was a way to create a logo easily - Oh, wait: AI can do that. Let's see what AI can do: No, cancel that. It can't
