poem of the day December 7 

Everyday skills

disappear

like wildlife

over time

Horse riding

Arrow shooting

Hand tools

Fire starting

The seemingly 

entrenched 

foundations

of civilization

The habits of survival 

vanish in plain sight

in the march toward 

Driverless cars 

Smart coffee grinders

AI generated  philosophy 

This walk if not careful 

eventually leads the human race

to a place where it becomes irrelevant 

and goes the way of the dinosaur
