Dream 2

The monolith stands out stark 
against the black background
we dream of a god 
some computer unseen

Yet would a computer understand 
would a computer feel the emotions we feel
would a computer create a paradise 
would a computer create a hovel

We dream of paradise 
a world where the violence of life 
has disolved into dreams of success
a world of transparent values

admirable bouty cast in a golden cave
yet imagine what you can acheive
you an emotional computer 
of complex fascination

An emotional being 
of wonderful dreams
able to leap incredable chasms
of intellergent thought
