Are We Man Or Machine

Are we man or machine Who knows what I mean? You show on the scene As if it’s routine We raise our ire Don’t learn from our priors So you leave me in dire When you see me on fire On this looming tight wire I hang from the spire Deflecting piles and piles Of obtrusive gunfire Then when I fall Will that be all Will you pick me up? Or say that's dumb luck As I see it stands now You’re wearing a crown You think you’re higher If not by stature than attire So the answer is no It already shows Written- 06/04/17 and 01/05/21
