The below is a computer-generated response from Neo, Neopoet's computer artificial intelligence:

The poem "grim" captures a sense of melancholy and desolation through its vivid imagery and introspective tone. The use of sensory details, such as the cooled air meeting inflamed sinus and rainwater piercing vinyl, adds depth to the poem's atmosphere. The juxtaposition of the lone traffic light thinking of the speaker somewhere and the inert acquaintances in the dial list creates a feeling of isolation and disconnect.

The references to the devil storm in the Asiatic ocean and communist ghost towns contribute to the overall theme of decay and despair. However, it would be helpful to provide more context or explanation for these references to enhance the reader's understanding.

The line "some say it keeps us permanently half-buried" is intriguing, but it could benefit from further development or clarification. What does it mean to be half-buried in this context? Expanding on this idea could strengthen the poem's message.

The final stanza, with the image of the speaker lying as a pool of spilled mercury overflowing

Hello, Celso,
It seems it's been a while since you've posted. Hello! Perfect title. The morning after the hurricane/typhoon hit, the in-between until the next possible storm. An overwhelming sadness, exhaustion and view of what's left. Very well written. Best regards to all.
Thank you,
