The End of Robots
Might it be the end-
the end of robots?
An old Chinese woman beats
a hospital robot with a stick
her frustration caught
by the ever-present video
-which has become our
memory
stronger than religion
as it binds us to Event-
and maybe the tipping point
of all our saved frustrations.
It could have been simple-
You are not listening!
I need to see a Doctor now!
Where is the bathroom?
I don’t know
but I am with her
as are you and millions
of us with our sticks
straining
to be released
from our mechanical souls.
