The robotic future

by Kevin T McEneaney

The final enterprise of sapiens?

To clutter the universe with robots

who garner evidence of human life,

which once flourished on this planet called Earth.

They will analyze our human demise.

*

These robots will research what we have done,

but they will have no empathy for us,

as they roam the universe collecting

clues on what we did wrong, searching for bots

on planets outside our solar system.

*

Robots will mine various minerals

and construct robot patterns of “life.”

If you think this is nonsense, think again,

for the future is prologue to the past!
