Alpha-582 Loves Zl-236, Episode Ii
EPISODE II
CYBER METAMORPHOSIS
Alpha-582 Loves ZL-236
I extend my hand to her
My hydraulics closing delicately
Both aware of our cold steel
And the heat of our humanity
In the softness of her eyes
I see the reflection of my face
Like the longing to connect
Through the vast coldness of space
I give her my sacred code
To bypass my encryption
My beating heart begins to race
As metal fades from my perception
We escape into a garden
Too green to hint of sin
And we find a hidden reality
As our virtual starts to spin
And we marvel at the ache
Of our vulnerability
We have a sudden revelation
Of our current atrophy
The vision of our ancestors
We have forged to perfection
We would rather be a machine
Than judged an imperfection
But as we spin together
Her eyes give me permission
To access her domain
And to start a new religion
I conduct past her circuits
To the soft tissue of her
Then something new in my abdomen
As darkness begins to purge
Mental explosions of light
Followed by the coldest sensations
Aware again of moving parts
Now also of unhealthy expectations
It hits me like a ton
That I feel every cruelty
And that's when I became aware
That I am not a machine
