False Colors
Do the strawberry fields become sickened
When the robots join in the fun
Does their sweet scent of berry
Become overwhelmed by a sterile one
Does the cold metal run across the soft dirt
Two objects not seeming to meet
Does the pink strawberry juice
Get crushed under a robots feet
Woven baskets become a bore
A job to humankind
But for the berries it was their world
Their home and lifeline
Now the robots barely keep them awake
They fall asleep in false colors
Were they not enough to keep this world as sweet as flowers
Or were they doing too much to keep it the same?
