Roborant Memories

Roborant Memories
David J Walker

Grow old with me
You said
	So we did
But if I were dead 
	Would I look better
In a box built for
	One last long look
Then I’m gone

The roborant effects of 
A perfect memory 
Reflects the faulty revisitations
Whom we call ghosts 

At most
	The bad host of good intentions 

Grow old with me
	You said
So we did 

At least we don’t have to hear
Don’t he look natural
	The way they say it
at your funeral
