Algorithms

algorithms 
which art in zuckerberg
hollowed be the tamed 
hide the kingdom come 
oligarchs will us dumb 
in our place as it is in cyberspace
deny us this data our waylaid brain
and foreclose all our expectations
as we confirm our programmers'
and lead us not into liberation 
but deliver us for extraction
for yours is the sole right 
and the power 
totalitarian
forever
amen
