compute

it's societal self shut-down    
by mass force brain drain    
replaced by purely
programmed    
original thought    
while relational standards  
sink obscene--
adaptable    
molding, morphing
into anything    
that makes it    
slip easy, slot right    
notch into place    
   
function one:    
one will perform
if one cannot think    
   
function two:    
one will go on    
if one cannot feel    

wild west-whipped    
next undead in line    
feeding    
thriving
on sugar, salt    
grease    
and patronizing praise    
   
follow in turn    
run the machine    
   
be the machine
