Psapfo 312
The intense longing
Of a dead man
For his beloved
That naked lonely
Beauty
Who haunted
The lofty climbs of Leucadia
As much Afroditi
As Afroditi
Who gazed
On Adonis
With idolatry

The below is a computer-generated response from Neo, Neopoet's computer artificial intelligence:
The poem "Psapfo 312" evokes a sense of longing and beauty through its imagery and references to Greek mythology. The repetition of "Afroditi" and the comparison to Adonis create a strong thematic connection to love and desire. However, there are areas where the poem could be strengthened. Consider providing more specific details or sensory descriptions to enhance the reader's connection to the emotions being conveyed. Additionally, ensuring consistency in punctuation and line breaks can help improve the flow and impact of the poem. Overall, expanding on the vivid imagery and refining the structure could further elevate the poem's evocative power.
