Robot Mankind
In this robotic
predictable state
programs are written
you may call fate
defy with your battle face
to go on unplanned
likened to a poker game
where all know your hand
they wrote your story, long ago
I call it, robotic
because that is all we are
biological machines
but for a heart
that beats us into reality
bleeding forth what we know
as waves of emotions
some call it life
call it what you will
rising and climbing
forever, until
you reach your peak, or fall off in spite
an unknown ascent, that which drives us, right?
until the momentum turns
now, as is our life, draining downward
to a rendezvous with nature
so don't be so pragmatic
you may lose your nerve
then the stakes
will change courses
with your will to lead or serve
the cancerous, robotic mankind
I see who you are
I know where your going
and shall meet you into war
as we fight premeditation
only for chance to beat its grip
for only the strong
lives on, unconquered
except by him versus his mind
astral projections, long seen the coming
it may go one of two ways, in this, a new age
of the robot's love affair battle with mankind.
