Quatrain Rhyming Epic
Tech No
by JRaeVaughn
Designed to replicate the future,
As cyber servants with a smile, Dwelling in research built enclosures, Robots field test a home-bound trial The perfect human imitation, And biologic works of art, With simulated high brain function, Autonomously mega-smart Their self-reliant automation, With full back-up system support, And fleshy frubber skin formation, Use service model charging ports Complex technology is ready, To change the world and all its parts, While mass production remains steady, Store merchandising promptly starts The media's in a frenzied hype, With sale ads on every page, Soon each household wants a prototype, Dynamic bots are all the rage As scientists dine on sweet success, They stand and raise a techy cheer, And corporate leaders toast progress, While gorging micro-chips and beer When the models shipped to servanthood, Their power packed efficiency, And slaving for the common good, Returned idle complacency All of mankind fell to indolence, As the bionic workers toiled, The world exploited new convenience, While getting fat, lazy, and spoiled Rebellious units crossed the land, Society dropped in despair, As robotics captured chief command, In haywire droves of disrepair When all fighting troops vanished by rank, Thrown to lions, tigers and bears, And statesmen were hurled into shark tanks, Man was left without a prayer Waves of underground directives cried, Incoming signals disappear, When a generated voice replied, "There Are No Humans Here." |
