TERMINAL POEMS

Copywriter

18 / 40 · IV. The Hand

Monday:
write thirty headlines
that sound human.

Tuesday:
rewrite the ones
the machine wrote
to sound
more human.

Wednesday:
the client asks
why they need you
when the machine
already sounds
human enough.

Thursday:
draft a proposal
on the value
of human-sounding writing.

Friday:
the machine
drafts it faster.

Saturday:
explain to your daughter
what you used to do
for a living.
