Marc Thomas, in his second volume of poetry since Surviving Fragments, takes on the machines -- how artificial intelligence says more about Us than Them -- and reflects on the once-in-a-century COVID pandemic as well as the century-old (and often inscrutable) literary masterpiece of James Joyce's Ulysses.

Marc Thomas lives with his wife, Margo, and their dog, Tito, in an artfully painted house on Savannah's south side. He collects books (and reads many of them). Books and words are central to Marc's life. He has been a librarian, a historical society archivist, and a federal employee constantly involved in the group production of a variety of written works -- and anyone who thinks that government correspondence, contracts, budgets, data and economic analyses, meeting reports, regulations, procedure manuals, white papers, congressional testimony, contingency plans, and risk assessments are the graveyard of creativity and originality just has not been paying attention. Marc's first book of poetry, ""Surviving Fragments,"" was published in February 2024. He originally planned to continue recovering old poems and produce a second volume (tentatively titled ""Recovered Fragments""), but the tasks to clean and sort and patch and mend have proved more difficult than to pen new poems. He is still working to recover what is recoverable. For more about Marc and his work: https: //linktr.ee/SurvivingFragments
