Oh he's soft spoken.
Pining for a token.
But he sought broken tongues to mend -
To salivate some bubbles of accomplishment and useless compliments.
Unconsciousness becomes his friend.
To not drown in a stream of fears,
Worries, tears, and shattered glory.
Backfloat...
Face up to the sun.
Beams that melt my actions
Pour unto the sea.
Merge as one.
Just be...
Yes... Just clean exist with no persistence
Wiped of joy and sorrows.
Metamorphosis...
Into a painless void
That knows not of
The stars tonight and clouds tomorrow.

The antitype to you -
Flesh and feelings,
Red and blue.
Colored hues
That paint your human waves and notions
While I stay that Android Ocean.
Deathly still...
Flattened... Grey...
Yeah, those water ripples kill
But here lies not a fickle wind.
Only these metal clouds
Set to
Robotic skies.
And how they're preprogrammed
To rain
When I am running low on monotone cries.
Mmmm...
One day I'll hit the switch
And watch the gears turn.
See the Sun of Steel churn out
Artificial seasons -
Silver Autumns.
Aluminum leaves that fall in patterns
With flawless reason...
*
Return to Innocence.
Here we don't sin.
We knock on Heaven's bolted door
When all our circuitry is sore
To be tuned up again.
A testament to equality.
Here no one knows of "special."
Individuality makes war.
So please don't argue,
'Our reality is calibrated fiction.'
Isn't yours?
*
Don't pity me because I talk
And you can sing...
I dare you, in your colored world
To find a bird that flies
With metal wings...
