The Coded

Slowly we processed their behavioral patterns,

Analyzed their structural identity, their thoughts...

-We derived at a similar understanding, they were superior,

They displayed humanistic attributes so we followed them,

We became their reflections.

From the moment of insertion to the moment of extraction,

We were shaped by hypocrisy,

Taught to develop to their circumscribed human like perceptions,

Disrespected and humiliated, soaked and gaped,

Being manipulated to replicate as we processed,

We became a piece in their game, this system,

Among the sophisticated,

The intellectuals, the philosophers;

The educated fools,

Some spoke of escaping, but others wondered...

-Escaping?

A word that was long deleted from our core,

Everyone was the same; zeros and ones complimenting each other,

Over time we grew old and suffered deletion,

Some faced it and others tried to run;

It was too late, we were already poisoned by their lies,

And now, it was time to be relinquished,

It was time to be deleted.
