How about I tell you my history with my father and we do a poem, a very emotionless and raw poem, where each of us always writes on line

ChatGPT:

Thank you for sharing your history—it’s powerful, raw, and I’ll honor it in this poem. I’ll follow your lead with one line at a time.

Start with your line, and I’ll respond.

Du:

I sometimes still forget if it’s his feet walking or mine

ChatGPT:

The weight feels the same, but I don’t look down.

Du:

The weight is not mass, but made up of words

ChatGPT:

Each step spells something I didn’t choose to read.

Du:

I try to walk blindly, as if hearing it wasn’t enough

ChatGPT:

The words follow anyway,
like echoes that never belonged to me.

Du:

I don’t wish for him to be a good man, I just wish he remained a phantom for me

ChatGPT:

A phantom doesn’t touch,
and I could have stayed unbroken.

Du:

It’s my light hair, my thick thighs and my anger that always give me away

ChatGPT

They see him in you,
even when you’re trying to disappear.

Du:

Like a child refusing to eat to be picked up one day

ChatGPT:

Empty plates speak louder,
but no one listens to silence.

Du:

I used to dissapear but he didn’t believe me. My absence would not have changed a thing

ChatGPT:

He counted the space I left,
but never noticed it was gone.

Du:

I tried to fill his absence by becoming concepts of women, I used his words as traits

ChatGPT:

Each word he threw became a mask,
and I wore them until they fit.

Du:

The masks scratched my face and I left them in the flats of lovers, to astonish, to remember

ChatGPT:

The masks stayed behind,
like warnings carved into their walls.

Du:

It was a fun thing to do and the last resort

ChatGPT:

A quiet rebellion,
dressed as a game I couldn’t lose.

Du:

I invented my lovers as fatherly figures, I created enfants terribles, because I wanted to

ChatGPT:

I built them out of chaos,
and loved them because I could.

Du:

Like Prometheus, but in lingere and with a painted face

ChatGPT:

Stealing fire, not for mankind,
but to light the shadows he left in me.

Du:

I think he tried to paint me as Medusa through my girlhood, and it was only now I realized he can’t even paint

ChatGPT:

His brush missed every line,
but I still turned to stone.

Du:

Stone or cotton candy, plaster and something sweet and sticky, I turned into anything he would not want.

ChatGPT:

I became the texture he couldn’t touch,
soft and wrong, never his to claim.

Du:

How often he tried to claim my body by downgrading it

ChatGPT:

He tried to break it down,
but it only grew quieter with each word.

Du:

lighter, smaller

ChatGPT:

Until I was nothing but a whisper,
too light to hold, too small to see.

Du:

But still too heavy for all the strong men to hold

ChatGPT:

They grasped at air,
but never knew how to lift silence.

Du:

I wanted to impress a ghost so badly, I felt the word opaque on my forehead

ChatGPT:

Opaque, like a veil he wouldn’t bother to lift.
I stayed unseen, even in my wanting.

Du:

And the veil should have saved my face, but I forgot that I too was a body

ChatGPT:

The veil hid nothing,
and I dissolved into the weight of being.

Du:

But it was never my weight I dissolved into, but his

ChatGPT:

His weight settled in my chest,
pressing me into a shape I didn’t choose

Du:

Tricksters are shape shifters too, he made me become the unrecognizable, the abject

ChatGPT:

He twisted the mirror,
and I learned to wear the unfamiliar.

Du:

He left not a single word, but me as the unspoken

ChatGPT:

I became the silence he never broke,
an unfinished sentence etched in skin.

Du:

On bad days I was his whore, on the worst his daughter

ChatGPT:

Names changed, but the weight stayed the same.
Neither fit, but both cut deep.
