I am not a robot
I’m not that handsome
I make too many mistakes
have messy penmanship
I meet many robots
I understand your concerns
why are you showing me pictures
of hills and motorcycles
some day a robot will do my job
some day a robot will make my love
until that day i’ll do my best to respond
make jokes and get many things wrong
Robert,
I would like to think this poem is about the art of imperfection. To me, there is beauty in being perfectly imperfect; and by meeting many "robots", there are too many that seem to be perfect, but in reality are not. I love your poem because it captures the feeling of knowing that a time will come, where "robots" are all around us; wheather human, or robot....
Great poem! Made me laugh, & boy does it express a sentiment many of us feel!
