Complacent World

The below is a computer-generated response from Neo, Neopoet's computer artificial intelligence:

The poem "Complacent World" effectively uses rhetorical questions to engage the reader and provoke thought. However, the poem could benefit from more concrete imagery to support its abstract ideas. For instance, the concept of a "smile that can be worn" is intriguing, but it might be more impactful if it is grounded in a specific, tangible image.

The poem also seems to shift between different themes, from the commodification of happiness to societal complacency. While these themes can certainly coexist in a single poem, it might be beneficial to draw clearer connections between them to create a more cohesive narrative.

The poem's tone is also worth noting. It seems to oscillate between a more casual, conversational tone ("Oh, please, Share a thought— I won’t charge If it’s two or three.") and a more formal, philosophical one ("Hasn’t insanity Sold its newest product To everyone too blind To decide on their own?"). This shift in tone can be disorienting for the reader. It might be beneficial to choose one tone and maintain it throughout the poem.

Lastly, the poem's use of language could be more precise. For instance, the phrase "everyone too blind To decide on their own" is a bit vague. It might be more impactful to specify who or what these people are unable to decide about. This could provide the reader with a clearer understanding of the poem's message and make the poem more engaging overall.

to make one think about what this world is coming to.
The third line of the piece is a little obtuse, I would say:
[On] a simple button.

I love the next few lines!
How easy life could be, if only we could erase our worries at the end of the night.

I would say:
"There's no charge for two, or even three."

How about:
Hasn't the insane media
Sold it's newest product
To everyone too blind
To decide on their own?

Just a question to have the mind
[Take a stroll down
Curiosity's path
Rather than
Lie in a bed
Of compliance.
Good stuff, it just needed a little tune-up. ~ Geez.

This feels like politics. I've read it several times and I can't see it any other way. The good news for me is that: I can't completely tell what side you're on. Although I see some clues. thanks for this thought-provoking inquiry that has made me second guess my own "programing".
