It’s tomorrow’s androids illustrating ‘a definite sure’

            Can anybody with us compete, what say?

            Bots won’t retreat, they are here to stay.
            They are no more a myth but a fact;

            You will have to accept them and relate, Robots
            will become the new leaders, They will be charged

            and in charge, Most of our problems machines
            will resolve, Around VR, AR, and bots, our life will
            revolve.

            How will the future unfold?

            Will it be Man vs. Man?
            Will it be Man vs. Machine?

            Will it be Machine vs. Man?
            Will it be Machine vs. Machine?

            And we laughed at the idea, We laughed at the machines!

            You just got a lesson in Robotics 101


               imperfect — flawed; glitch — small problem; omnipresent — everywhere; revolve — move around.
