A sensory system
with a complicated power supply
a computer for brain
it can simply be switched
on and off
blood doesn't flow through veins
staring into nothingness
without any thoughts whatsoever
behind eyes, just the soul of computer
tangled in wires and circuits
yet genius
peaceful, restful
she cannot feel grief
nor the daily disappointment
that I myself have to embrace
she could never feel her broken heart
her eyes unable to flow tears
her mind silent to all the ugliness
an enormous part of me
wishes I was her
and as I watch her I tremble
because
I am convinced her robotic heart
wants so desperately to beat
If just for a moment?
to feel any slight emotion
at least, that's what I imagine
and If I’m really honest
I tremble, because
her artificial intelligence
and lack of feeling
just makes me feel so damn envious.

Never be as intelligent as humans though, I say. I mean Daleks are talking dustbins! heehee.
Ahhh, a poem about KP, I see! Looks like her too. lol.
Lmao 🤣 oh Mr o I too am a talking dustbin in love with time! 💖
Thanks Dustbin, erm, Teddy! lol.
This is such a real subject, put in the most delicate way. I agree, it would be nice to feel no grief or sadness......oh but I would accept grief and sadness, as long as I get to love and laugh!!! Well done Teddy! 💖💖💖
Thank you dear Liz for your enormous understanding of these scribbles, maybe it would be a great day if just for one day we didn't feel it all. Thank you sweet friend ❤️
Careful what you wish for Teddy
Ai couldn't write with such feeling as this
And when that switch is flicked hmmm
Thought provoking read
Thoroughly enjoyed
Such a beautiful thing to say dear Peto, I shall let you into a secret personally I detest AI and all it stands for. The world is better with touch feel and tears even though maybe just for a moment we didn't have to hold those emotions which are far too often unwanted 💖
Your secret is safe with me
Ta for sharing it
Dear Teddy, you've chosen a most appropriate pic for this poem. Ophelia, I think, succumbing to her fate. You've put so exquisitely into words the struggle of our emotional lives, for it is all emotion in the end. If we feel, we endure the consequences good, or bad, but we Feel. Your emotional life has led you to this gem of a poem, you are the amazing writer my dear! A thousand fav's
Well way to make a robot cry!!!! LOL 💖 your words are so very precious dear Bella, coming from an exquisite writer means so much. Your time and understanding means the world. Thank you. 💖
Great writing teddy .. )
to be honest this makes me think of feeling numb .. not feeling anything at all .. and that is a difficult place to be .. you know when your watching something that’s supposed to be happy /funny .. and you feel ‘nothing ‘ I’ve felt that before .. sometimes but yes I can relate to the not wanting to feel grief / sadness .( difficult emotions )
I can see the envy in this but also the sympathy towards something which may not feel anything ..
‘ as I watch her I tremble
because
I am convinced her robotic heart
wants so desperately to beat
If just for a moment
to feel any slight emotion’
how sad is it not to ‘ feel ‘ happiness joy and just to feel ‘ empty ‘
A well written poem 🌸
Wow my dearest Rose, you have chosen my favourite stanza, we must all be empathetic and more compassionate towards others, we truly never really know unless they tell us, what they are going through. Sometimes maybe not too often though it would also be nice not to feel everything al the time. Thank you my dear friend. 💖
Such a fresh concept, to not just criticize, but to empathize with it, and to wish to be it (some of the time.) Great read Teddy!
So very kind of you to come by to my page dear Parisab, thank you so much 💖
A great write about a subject that makes me a bit nervous. I'm not sure we have thought out this technology adequately.
So very kind of you to come by dear Sorenbarret, I am not a fan of tech but I know for many things it's helpful like being here on this site, but for others it's a bit dark. Thank you. 💖
have a great holiday!
(oh and a lovely write as well) lol
i think if we were to become cyborg's, eventually
the only part of me I would never change
is my heart
LOL my dear MeK, thank you ❤️
hope you had as good a time on holiday as I'm having now finding you back here .. ❤️
Was lovely thank you dearest Nev. 💖
