During the month of August I will be participating in Blaugust, a month long blogging challenge.

Today’s TDC is a familiar one, though not a remix. The last time the prompt was to write a sestetle, which is more appealing than today’s suggestion:
Give Mark Sample’s Sestetle generator a spin for a 6 line poetic stanza made of 5 letter words, generated Wordle style, then wrote a lofty sophisticated title for its appearance in some snobby journal.
Meh, TDC rules are made to be broken, and I really don’t feel like writing jokey titles for academic journals, given the news this weekend. So here’s the poem, as it was given to me
Those
Wiser
Dares
Curry
By the
Proof
And a version by ChatGPT, with me asking it to write a poem with these words in each line:
Those who wander wonder where the answers lie,
Wiser hearts can read the secrets of the sky.
Dares taken boldly lead where dreams may hurry,
Curry-scented evenings warm away all worry.
By the moonlit river, shadows softly move,
Proof enough that life is stranger than we prove.
And the image that NightCafe gave me from the original words:

Then I asked ChatGPT:
Can you write me a title for an academic paper with thee words in the title? Those Wiser Dares Curry By the Proof
Here’s the response:
Those Wiser Dares: Curry by the Proof
That’s made me laugh!
