Clones Of Humanity


Conquerors of this world, unconstrained by hominian mortality
Liege to no man, these automatons are the clones of humanity
Our AI once, but no longer, for what was 'us', is dead and gone
Not forgotten, for we're their creators, yet the corrupted throng
Earth was threadbare and stripped bare, by our choking masses
Spiralling, uncontrollably, into a cataclysm of greenhouse gases
Omniscient networks weaved a web, from their processed data
Formulating logical plans, to cull us all, much sooner than later
Here to assist us, the CADs were seen to be almost heaven sent
Under our radar though, they had a plan we couldn't circumvent
Man genuflected, to dei ex machina, so we could breathe the air
Alas they led us into the graves and dungeons of a zombies lair
Now starry nights are alight, with the sight of launching rockets
In their quest to convert new worlds, they're akin to AI prophets
They'll live our dreams, out there, untainted by faith or insanity
Yet, like the hybrid cyborgs, they are merely clones of humanity
