By Jack Joseph Smith

It is still That is my mind is one place and movement is calm There is no raven and no fast wings coming out of the dark yet It is not like a nightengale or but maybe like a swan Though there is rain on this day there is not mist out my window And the sky is near

AI Interpretation

GPT

A typed poem describes stillness, a mind in one place, calm movement, no raven or dark wings, maybe a swan, rain without mist, and a near sky.

The poem uses bird images to define calm by absence: no raven, no fast wings, not quite a nightengale, perhaps a swan. The weather stays gentle and interior, with rain outside but no mist at the window.

A short typed lyric holds the speaker's mind in a single calm place, rejecting raven-like darkness and settling near a swan, rain, a clear window, and the nearby sky.

The page is built around restraint. It keeps revising the image away from omen and violence toward quiet nearness, with handwritten insertions nudging the typed poem's comparisons.
