IT IS TIME

 

Our brains are no match for computers,

Nor are our bodies a match for robots. 

It seems we have invented ourselves

Into being an endangered species.

 

Perhaps we will be kept as servants, or pets.

Or an advanced species of sentient beings

Will swoop in to intervene on our behalf.

 

In any event it appears the good old days

Of waging war and despoiling the planet,

Through arrogance and sheer ignorance,

May be coming to an inglorious end.

 

It is time, wouldn\'t you say?
