If Robots Like We

If robots, like we could walk, talk, and breath make love and drink Cabernet wine if they could remember last night and December then what about you and I? If robots could dance and bet on the chance they could walk in the rain and woods grow up like a child with tears, fears, and smiles does that mean that we should? If robots were generous, creative, and kind with families and friends of their own if they prayed, read Psalms, and knew right from wrong would we let them inside our homes? If robots could fight by day or dark night and kill at the drop of a hat would we call them a treasure or show our displeasure at creating these machine-like rats? If robots like we could walk, talk, and breath make love and drink Cabernet wine if they could remember last night and December then what about you and I?
