A few different things crystallized into this post.
The most relevant one, though, was when someone I know temporarily lost access to his usual AI image generator and he decided to just post his image prompt to the discord instead.
And you know what? The prompt he sent was beautifully written. It might not have technically been poetry, and I suspect he would object to seeing it referred to that way, but it evoked such a beautiful image in my mind that I think it counts.
You have this power. If you are getting good at writing prompts to make the machine paint a picture for you? Start writing those prompts down. Let your reader create the image your words inspire in their own mind.
You are already a poet. Just open the door and let the words flow out.
