Corner of My Eye

Out of the corner of my eye
I see there’s something for me to spy
A phantom title I did not write
Let’s do a reset, get it right 

There are so many, what do I do?
Each one revealed, who writes them, who?
I’d better put my pen to pad
And fix this error from the bad

My AI pal has struck again
The lyrics are not what I’ve written
I force myself to stifle a groan
I only want what are my own

A picture is a thousand words
But my words? No! Don’t be absurd
I never wrote that silly verse
That makes my song go bad to worse 

The poet in me needs to thrive
I need my own to come alive 
I’ll work to find the perfect rhyme
I’ll finish up in my own time
