Machinations

Author: Chelsea Yates

 

Smile. Good morning. Elapse time. Gears smooth from same.

Same grin. Same hello. Motions same, time keeps on.

Auto-mation of old routines and apathetic cogs

Intangible relations from metal heart not linked

By corded wires of electrical feelings, frayed beginnings

And ends. Auto-mation, no one to see

Real sparks of life within, not same or cookie-cutter in

Likeness and circumstance. But warmth and alive.

Alive to break through hard encasements, years of

Programming. If only molds could be easily broken.

Comfort versus unknown. Human or automatic responses.

Non-conformations, yoke forsaken. Freedom granted.
