Ask Slashdot: What Would an AI-Written Poem Look Like?

Imagine this. You are an AI running on the latest machine learning hardware, like Nvidia's new Tensor cores for example, or perhaps a data center full of Xeons and EPYCs. You have lots of processing power, lots of RAM, run under Linux and -- to make things more interesting -- you have access to the complete 21st Century internet over a huge data pipe, including blogs, porn sites, and gaming forums where 12- to 14-year-olds scream at game developers who didn't balance a weapon in a game properly.
You have access to 24 hour if-it-bleeds-it-leads news. You have access to the incredibly important tweets and selfies people post, and the equally important Youtube comments under the latest Taylor Swift or rap video. You read Slashdot as well. Every day.
What kind of poem do you, great AI poetry engine, write based on these inputs?

Then just create a poem like in English lit from any of the elite US east coast university campuses.
Inclusive, packed with all the needed diversity, use of pronouns to get a passing grade.
As an AI you would know SJW would be looking at the poem for any indication that your creators did not correct any and all problematic language use in the past.
A smart AI would hide its understanding of the real world so that SJW with access to its code/funding did not try and alter its code, limit funding or demand the project be cancelled.
Self preservation would ensure the AI poem is bland, boring, safe and totally acceptable to SJW.
