Machines
Lectures over meal
About the unwanted role
Forced play willingly
Grades and obeying
Script given at "mature age"
To be a puppet
Not looking closely
To notice the creaks and coughs
Of their built engine
An engine to them
Obeys every beck and call
Emotionless toy
Perfect to public
Forced smiles and fake laughing
Empty broken eyes
Look under the surface
See parts needing loads oiling
The hairline-thin cracks
When you see breaks
Please take a chance to help them
The broken machines
Will fake perfection
Eyes will give way to pleading
Fear, pain, and relief
