Nano-Bot Incursion

Nano-bot Incursion Nanobots began to shape their world in silent numbers Grew uncountable before the dawn of days In silence there is no form. Darkness has no shape on empty landscapes Black rocks don’t count as objects to odd aliens Time does not stand still. It stands for nothing in the trenches of creation Down in the minuscule world of nano-ness abstraction Going about their business relentlessly Expanding as they go Nothing holds back the glow of tenacious ingenuity. Human metallic rings worn on fingers Seem to have peculiar effects on nanos actions For some unknown reason strange things happen at mere contact Apparently the shape of rings causes aberrant behavior Perhaps tiny automatons don’t like restrictions Confined movements to circular rotation Perplexing them to the monotony of repetition Around and around the band Become disoriented as an emergent species Collide and die Apparently nano-bots need to expand Naturally this is all pure speculation If humans are to merge with them successfully They must open up the molecules within each cell Relax the pores above the skin Allow the alien in Allow the process to begin It does not matter if this is a sin or crime Science and technology must forge forward That which goes against conventions Has never stopped the building of reality Constructing futures is what the nanos do We are long overdue to break all laws of nature Allow the nano-bots to do What they instinctively know how and what to do Merge with the human brain Take us to their leader to new horizons To the next plateau into omnipotence To stand in numbing silence next to them Spinning round and round in circles Humming nano nano under the breath
