android
reborn from the ashes
of ancient man
my new robot registers
some 2.4 million
years of age
her memory recalls
walking upright
from the very start
when dinosaur parts
sold on street corners
newly retooled in a shop
in downtown phoenix
his synthetic upgrades
looked as real as
tomorrow’s avatars
aware its architecture
forever evolved
it didn’t take long
until i was integrated
into the next release
august two thousand twelve

Nice. It’s not often you see a poem about an android AND dinosaurs.
thanks so much, kind of surprised me too.
