Echoes From the Void
About
What happens when a machine is asked to write about love?
Echoes from the Void is not a traditional poetry collection. It is a literary experiment at the edge of consciousness.
This is a FREE eBook of poems where author Tom Kane began a conversation with an artificial intelligence language model and asked it to explore longing, hope, absence and loss. The machine responded. What followed was not imitation, but investigation.
These poems do not claim to feel. They examine feeling.
They do not confess heartbreak. They analyse it.
They observe hope, distance and grief with unsettling clarity.
Some poems are written by the human hand. Others are generated by artificial intelligence. Together, they form a dialogue between lived experience and constructed language.
If Love Letters in the Void was written from within the human condition, Echoes from the Void stands at its boundary and looks inward.
This collection asks a quiet but profound question:
Where does emotion truly live — in the writer, in the words, or in the reader?
Philosophical, reflective and unexpectedly moving, Echoes from the Void is a meditation on poetry, technology and the fragile space between mind and machine.

5-Star Review
Echoes from the Void reads like a quiet exchange rather than a traditional poetry collection—a monologue shaped by dialogue between the poet and an AI presence that listens without interruption.The poems are deeply human, and emotionally evocative. In contrast, the AI remains restrained and unemotional, yet strikingly aware. It does not attempt to fix or console, but instead bears witness, creating a space where compassion exists without judgment or demand.
What makes this collection resonate is that tension. The AI’s lack of emotion does not feel cold; it feels steady. It becomes a listener in the void.
Quiet, reflective, and timely, Echoes from the Void explores what it means to be heard, not by someone who feels as we do, but by something that understands us anyway.
