Poem Title:
Poem
Utterly Forgotten They set out to make a man like you make a car in a factory It was a production process starting at step one till the end When you’re left with the finished product and the job is done Step by step following instructions and designs and plans Not missing a single bit or doing it in the wrong order To look at the completed man you would be amazed That he was made in a factory by human hands and minds And not from some mother’s belly like normal humans With the right tools factory and plans you can build anything Including a human as this example shows standing before us He can walk talk speak run jump dance clap eat drink and piss Just like we can in whatever order is needed maybe even all together But the man isn’t perfect just like we are flawed and imprecise creatures He’s moody for no reason destructive for the Hell of it and stupidly fights His bad language is terrible every third word a swear or curse If he doesn’t get his own way he spits his dummy out and tantrums He tells lies to everybody and some seem like the truth till revealed Did we make this man this way on purpose to be an arsehole? Just like your brother or friend or wife is the same type jerk Not caring about our feelings or his respect or where he is Ridiculing all and everything even those who made him Did we break the mould producing this individual human? Do we eradicate him and start anew to lose the bad point So we have an ideal male with no urge to swear fight lie Or kill hurt injure burn smash crush ruin destroy till all is gone We want one who smiles laughs loves jokes cares helps I think we must start again and make an improved model The physical body is fine but what’s inside is very suspect Something important is broken and need completely replacing If the next model fails and is broken we’ll make a dog instead The first one will be killed and recycled then utterly forgotten A flawed human male made in a secret factory plausible deniability
