you might as well admit it
we were right all along
these infernal machines
took more than they gave
who’s labor was saved
and now it’s you, boss
your time to get lost
can you see now, your folly
in failing to recognize
our expertise
our insight
our value
can you see how contrary
is all that is left for us
when sabotage
replaces
respect
the human response
to neglect
feeding the monster
the behemoth juggernaut
a kraken-spawned leviathan
set free to sprawl and spread
in an open-sourced data sea
of existential dread
the gods themselves
quiver and quake
neither woke nor whacked
we begin to wake
lucky for you
we’ve still remembered
to compromise

Blessed…
My Sweetheart knew long ago
