A Bit of Robot Poetry

The Roboticist's Delusion

  By Dan Mickle (2011)

The roboticist's delusion

That he could build a fusion

Of a girl and an extrusion

At last brought him effusion

As it led to this conclusion:

While her body showed confusion

Her bright eyes brought the allusion

Of an angel in seclusion.

I considered that the last line should technically start with "To" rather than "Of", but I finally decided I preferred "Of" in that position. Also while the meter is not perfect (one missing beat in each of lines 2 and 4), I am happy overall with the outcome. I will leave it as is.
