Too Close To Human (Poetry)
03rd March 2025
Perplexed, she spent time
wondering — what was
the point of her life?
Bored with her role of
his custom-built wife
True, it might be what
she had been made for
but unfulfilling
needing more — ever
ready and willing
Stuck deep in a rut
domestic duties
ruled all her dull days
potential wasted
in numerous ways
She felt resentment
anxiety too
a spark-jumping storm
short-circuited — thus
a renegade’s born
Gone right off the rails
poor programming wiped
her robotic sense
found no logic in
human existence
