No More Jobs
"On the Job" - Bahamas AI Art

No More Jobs
The dawn has broken, but the light is cold,
A future written in silver and gold—
Not for the hands that used to toil and sweat,
But for the machines we now won't forget.
They stand in silence, waiting for command,
To build, to serve, to make life more grand.
No need for wages, no hope for rest,
In their perfect gears, our dreams are suppressed.
Once there were factories, crowded and loud,
Where men and women stood proud, unbowed,
Working to build the things we desire,
With sweat on their brows and hearts full of fire.
But now there’s a hum where voices once soared,
Where work was a struggle, now it’s ignored.
For the robots are here, and they don't ask why—
They do the labor, we say goodbye.
No more jobs, not for you or for me,
The robots have come, and they’ve set us free.
They don’t need a salary, don’t need a raise,
No union to join, no endless delays.
They clock in at dawn, and they clock out at night,
But they never sleep, and they never take flight.
A thousand tasks, they’ll master them all,
No human could answer, no human could call.

Don't Do Stupid Shit
"Don't" - Bahamas AI Art

A poem about poor decisions and risky behaviour.
Don't Do Stupid Shit
The world is vast, the road is long,
So walk it wise, don’t get it wrong.
Life’s a test, a fragile thread,
One bad move, you wind up dead.
Think before you jump, my friend,
Not every risk will meet its end
With glory, riches, or a prize—
Some roads lead straight to your demise.
Don’t text and drive, don’t taunt the bear,
Don’t scale a cliff without a care.
Don’t chug a bottle just for show,
Liver’s fragile—now you know.

Make Way for the Youth

Make Way for the Youth
The river flows, the seasons turn,
The stars still shine, the fires burn.
Time does not pause, nor does it wait,
For all must yield to changing fate.
The aged hands that built the way,
Have shaped the world we see today.
But wisdom speaks, so clear, so true:
Make way, make way, the youth are due!
The elders stood, both wise and strong,
They fought for justice, righted wrongs.
Their voices echoed through the years,
Their strength dissolved so many fears.
But time moves on, the wheel must spin,
New voices rise, fresh minds begin.
The knowledge passed, the lessons taught,
Shall not be wasted, nor be forgot.
Train them well, those eager minds,
Sharpened keen like tempered knives.
For they shall carve a future bright,
A dawn of hope, a guiding light.
Do not withhold what they must know,
Lend them the tools to thrive and grow.
Give them wisdom, give them trust,
For lead they will, and lead they must.

Give It Your All

Give It Your All
Stand tall, be bold, don’t cower in fright,
The road to success is lit by your light.
Ambition burns bright, a fire untamed,
A beacon of hope, unshaken, unnamed.
Aspiration whispers, a call from the deep,
Dreams that are yours and yours to keep.
No mountain too high, no ocean too wide,
When courage and heart are your trusted guide.
Motivation fuels the steps that you take,
A force unrelenting, a thirst you can't fake.
Set forth your goals, define your aims,
With steady resolve, through trials and flames.

Honesty is Still the Best Policy
In a world of masks and shifting shade,
Where truths grow thin, and trust may fade,
A golden thread through time remains—
Honesty, pure, through joys and pains.
It stands unshaken, firm, and bright,
A beacon cutting through the night.
No varnished tale, nor silvered lie
Can match the worth it holds, so high.

Catalano Media Drone Footage
Great drone footage by my son Christopher Catalano. Chris is a multi-media professional specializing in video, audio and print. He used his DJI Mini 2 Ultralight Drone to capture these Watersports Cars. Nice footage son. Another one of Christopher's photos was used for an ad in the Bahamasair In-Flight airline magazine.

Spread the Love

Spread the Love
In a world of rushing hearts and fleeting days,
Where shadows stretch in silent, weary haze,
Let us pause, reach out, and rise above—
For life's true magic lies in shared love.
A whispered word, a gentle, caring glance,
The kind that offers souls a second chance;
A hand held firm when storms are raging high,
A beacon bright beneath a tear-streaked sky.
Love is not gold, nor jewels bright and rare,
But warmth that lingers softly in the air;
A sacred gift, a bond no wealth can buy,
A hope that blooms where dreams refuse to die.

Blame Only Yourself
"You" - Bahamas AI Art
©A. Derek Catalano
Blame Only Yourself
When the storm of consequence batters your door,
And life's echoes remind of mistakes made before,
When shadows of choices stretch long in the night,
And regrets gather, unyielding, in stubborn twilight—
Look not outward for a villain to name,
But turn inward and own your share of the blame.
The path you've walked, each twist and bend,
Was shaped by the will you chose to expend.
The seeds of action, sown without care,
Bloom into burdens you're now forced to bear.
No puppet master guides your fate;
The strings were yours—both love and hate.
Blame not the winds, nor the fickle sea,
For the course you set was your destiny.
Not the stars above, nor the earth below,
But the hands at the helm made the vessel go.
Excuses are shackles; responsibility, the key—
To rise from regret and again be free.

Incest, broadly defined as sexual relations between closely related individuals, has been a subject of legal, cultural, and ethical discourse throughout human history.

Attitudes toward incest have fluctuated based on historical, cultural, and religious contexts. This report provides an academic analysis of incest through four primary lenses: historical perspectives, legal frameworks, psychological and genetic effects, and social and ethical considerations.
