Robot

By BrokenButterflyWings

Won’t laugh
Won’t write
Won’t sing
Won’t dance
Won’t do what you
don’t tell it to
Won’t cry
Won’t talk
Won’t hope
Won’t lie
Won’t pretend to know the ‘why’
Won’t paint
Won’t create
Won’t run away
Won’t sleep or eat or die
Won’t know what to do
If it gets loose
Won’t know to leave or stay

Tell it the answer
No need to question
What to do today
