There was a machine
That cranked and rattled

There was a machine
sputtered and clattered

All questions were battled
Inquiry shattered

A class taken faster
Than all minds could fathom

Discoveries scattered
Fleeing the merciless

Mega machine that
Cranked away

Endlessly tearing
Through anything

Everything that could be thought
Or changed in a way

Now in a void
Empty of knowledge

The machine stood motionless
Somewhat in awe

The only thing
It failed to discover

Was that it could not
Uncover it all
