One poem is by a human, one is by a machine, and you are not told which. Pick the one you prefer, then submit your vote.

poem a

this illuminated stick that one names an app for finding the flame while unknowingly igniting a forest of oblivion. swipe left, swipe right, metamorphosis of the instant, each profile a pretext to forget that everything is only bad poetry adapted to modern tastes. in these ephemeral exchanges we exchange soul fragments and sometimes find someone who has read the same book, who looks at the sea as if it were hope.

poem b

I know this has nothing
to do with wood
but all I can think of is fire
and I know it's either left
or right but consider my father
proposing to my mother
while bombs undressed the
capital down to rubble
made him trade a burgundy Jaguar
for an olive green Renault 12
how profile meant
the outline of jagged futures
soldered into destiny
