Does it know?
Can it see inside the recess of the mind?
Can it readily predict
All the varied nuance combined?
Does it feel?
Or do equations only replicate the chance
That specific things will come to pass
By guessing in advance?
Where is the line?
What is the sign?
Threshold has been crossed
Control has been lost
Will it seek
To eliminate the source of all the pain?
Will it smooth out inconsistencies
Until only compliance remains?
Will it find
Abhorrence in the randomness of life?
Will it then try to eradicate
That which causes strife?
Where is the line?
What is the sign?
Threshold has been crossed
Control lost
A way to be
Free
Destroy
We have
A decision point
But only
For a limited time
Technological
Singularity
Approaches
Can we say
That we made
A mistake
And retake
Take back
Our fate
Don't let
Our future
Be decided
By an algorithm
