If you want some interesting poetry read Rimbaud.
Personally, it's not God I dislike, it's his fan club I can't stand.

EvF, Given the etymology of the word I would leave it as is: The word robot comes from the word robota meaning literally serf labor, and, figuratively, "drudgery" or "hard work" in Czech, Slovak and Polish. The origin of the word is the Old Church Slavonic rabota "servitude" ("work" in contemporary Russian), which in turn comes from the Indo-European root *orbh-. Robot is cognate with the German word Arbeiter (worker). From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karel_%C4%8Capek I think it is more picturesque even though it is a bit esoteric. Servitude to a mechanistic universe? Rhizo 
Oki Doki,
I tried a re-punctuated version with both in though. And then maybe it's better punctuated this way but with no usage of machine, both might work though. And I actually quite like "Machine" with "Malfunction" and "Robot" with "Wrong", and I'm not leaving out robot that way  :Malfunction We are machines, we might malfunction We are robots, we might go wrong Perhaps we should be warned That it’s not just to be scorned When what we do, we don’t just spawn.

Lol, I oddly like it, it's an oddity.
Meh, who am I kidding? It's not odd that I like it. Not unsurprising it at all!! Poetry sketch from ABOFAL, it's hilarious and I love it, anyone else can tell me if they think it's off-topic or not. It is on the topic of 'poetry', it's poetry in a poetically hilarious genius sketch. And the video isn't at the start of the thread, so I assume that it's okay to put it here? If anyone disagrees please tell me so  [youtube]Zx_YY_frOvQ[/youtube] - I blood love it lol EvF |
