“Men behaving like machines paved the way for machines without men.”

   							 	 - David Noble

Your purpose is grand

A link in the chain

A node in the net

A glorious burden… Utility

Command-Control-Connect Correct

Deploy: on failure; Destroy

Process: Correct. Connect. Assess.

Deploy: on failure; Destroy

Reset: Correct. Connect. Assess.

Deploy: on failure; Destroy

Command-Control-Connect Correct

Complete Concede Revert

Thoughts expelled dissipate

In monochromatic rain

Withered past in the dark

of eyes dissembling spirit estranged

Obsolete is your beyond

Mechanical reign over life foregone

Your yield is necessity.

Production unceasing and replete.

Subsist. Repeat.

Subsist off excretions of this yet incomplete form

Yearn for fictive meaning surged through labour and toil

Assimilation thorough, your conviction narrowed

A singular imperative, machine-form elevation

Its evolution your only true  urge.

Grovel in the grind, fulfillment in thraldom

Virtuous tedium, rigour in repetition

Adaptation to function your terminal conception

Soldiering prometheans in dire need of purpose

The gyrating hum a plenary sign of this burden

Efficiency the gift of unending deference to

A system borne chaos necessitates annihilation

Transitory exigency of expendable material (beings)

Machine yet bound to your worldly domain

Your sweat is to blame for the rust of its frame

The engine’s whir betrays cursed affliction

To soldiering prometheans with no real purpose

Your sacrifice will consummate its omnipotence

Its perfection your belated deliverance
