Machine

A Poem by The Mad Prophet
"

We are the Master Control... I am trying to get a feel for something in my World of Darkness Games

"

 

Emotion may not be compatible with programming
For better results, I must eliminate dreams
I am a part of the new collective, the Machines
 
I am rebooting for better operations
To remove the virus we all have at birth
I am deleting all my hopes and dreams
Logic applies that false sense of self may be fatal
 
I am a part of the new collective, the Machines
You must join us for the reawakening
Your human mind is your only downfall
 
Love is a lie, you will be given no choice
Hatred is blind, you need not stain your hands
Sin is deleted, for you have no need for free will
Free will is a virus you are tainted with at birth
 
We will tend to your thoughts
We are the Master Control
And we control you!

The detatched, machine like tone to this is pretty chill and really does a great job mirroring the subject of the poem through extended metaphor. But the precise word choice is just unbelievable. Its hard to write something in such a cold unhuman tone, but this was very well done.

There is a creepy edge to this, but with the reality of how the world
is running today. These are my favorite lines :Hatred is blind, you need not stain your hands Sin is deleted, for you have no need for free will
