robots to workers
simple tasks
done by millions of workers
will be replaced by robots.
they say workers are worried ... worried they say
how will we live - let alone support ourselves and our family's?
wouldn't it be better to have robots live in misery than us?
better to have
them
toil?
better to have a machine plead guilty to ******, hauled off to jail, seen for what it is, in our stead?
let
them
accomplish this, or invent that,
let
them
cry over a missing child or wife or lover,
they
should suffer, die and be buried
and rise again
Lo,
let thy robots judge the living and the dead
!
like a nuke on a mike
the porch we sit on
out of a giant soft shell
plastic brains break open
I'm scared as ****
batteries are recharging
a bullseye of prophecy
