  Earlier today I asked Bing's AI Chatbot to reimagine the plot of my novella Reunion: A Story as a poem in the style of 19th Century writer and poet Edgar Allan Poe. Bing obliged me; this is what it produced:  In June of '83, young Jim Garraty A senior at South Miami High A staff writer for the school paper, he A scholar bound for college nigh But as commencement draws near Jim must deal with unfinished business The girl he loves from afar will disappear And rumor has it she'll be gone for the summer, no less Worse still, Marty doesn't know How deeply Jim's feelings for her are Unless he tells her so But when opportunity arises, Jim hesitates afar Now 15 years later, James Garraty An up-and-coming history professor Respected by his peers and literary But true love eludes him no lesser Reunion is a tale of regret and loss Of friendship and choices made A glimpse into a life that leaves us at a loss And leaves us questioning our own crusade. © 2018, 2023 Alex Diaz-Gr
