Optimus Prime

Manufactured, made up parts
flow into this mechanical heart.

Beat-
And I will transform
Pulse-
And i will morph into
a man,
a machine,
a synthesis of void emotions.


Battled hands, wounded mind
these are a few tricks of mine.

Pump,
I will retaliate
Attack,
I will defend
all my senses,
all my traits,
my weapons of destructive choice.

Im not primed,
to function human...
But Im not machine enough
to lose my manhood...
I just continue to transform.
