Loveless Silicon

A jasmine eye

Yet blinded by

A simple pose

Of lips of rose

A sin to bite

Nails of white

Or scratch the skin

Deep within

Cycles of complexity, a build of loveless silicon.

It is beautiful - the ones and zeros falling perfectly into place.

The awesome heft of technologically superior hardware,

A web-like framework constructed for our pleasure.

It reeks of blood,

A simple flood.

Remorseless chill,

Is waiting still

For gentle peace,

Or soft release

From this numbing

Tempest's sting.
