10 The Machines are Here!

I can sing
...
I can sing...
The poem explores the impact of artificial intelligence and robotics on human life,
highlighting the efficiency and capabilities of machines.

It was talked about for years-this coming of
Al and Robotics; It is now fearfully plain that

the world, Today, tomorrow, and beyond
that, Will be driven by robots and geeks.
Humans can find work tiresome, Go through

success or failure, unlike a bot.

So, they crafted SMART machines, to always
succeed where they could not.
They ushered in the Age of Machines,

Automation Revolution, if you please.

To be a human being is to be imperfect flaws,
scrapes, spots, scars, and defects, But robots
need not fear, fret or frown, About a minor
glitch or a major breakdown.

Years back, a bot left us gasping and gaping,

Thumping the office mail on each desk, we
swore!
These machines we thought were just us

aping;

Now, omnipresent! They cook, deliver, serve and explore,
Our homes, offices, Earth, oceans, space, and more.

Alas! Bots won’t let us settle for less, Strangely, that is a testimony to confess.

Is this the coming of tomorrow’s trend?
Could this be the Human’s living end?

It’s not a Twilight Zone Door,
