Robot 3000 Poem by Paula Glynn

We appreciate power,
We appreciate power,
Grimes the goddess of music,
Electronica the business,
Electric non-stop beats,
Through a boombox.

Robot 3000 once robot 2000,
To appreciate power,
Of artificial intelligence,
The robot once myth now fact,
Touch screens once myth now fact,
Centuries flying past in succession,
Technology and science,
Advancing the world,
Even for those working in Africa,
Even those in slums anywhere,
Even those who are just poor,
Third world debt gone,

Time never stopping,
With the spinning of the planets,
Humans sending robots,
And people, into space,
Humanity travelling,
Through the stars and planets,
Other solar systems and galaxies,

And we know and see,
Through the electronic eyes of robots,
Humanoid robots,
The year earth 3000,
Mars the mythological planet,
Where people reside,
Now reality,
For earth's people are now Mars people,
The red planet harvesting life,
The human race leaving earth,
For new planets NASA,
Having done their work well,

Robots in 3000,
Do human work,
For robots never feel hurt,
And never complain,
And never make errors,
For human-like robots,
And other type of robots,
Do industrial work,
And do assisting people at work,

For technology created these robots,
Their concept prior to the year 3000,
Where they were once so basic,
But the human race needs robots,
And will always advance their functions,
For robots never feel fear,
And neither do they ever cry,

And computers to talk,
Computers now to walk,
Earth spinning on,
Night to day,
Day to night,
Never stopping wars,
And galactic fights,
Where robots programmed,
To fly spaceships and cars,
To have helped the Mission to Mars,
For man is god of the stars,
And robot 3000 has taken,
Humanity far,
Time never stopping,
And technology to advance the world,
And make the world a better place,
Whether the year 2000,3000 or 4000.
