The Fibersphere ... /- 28

/- 28:

"Now whether conscience souls 
could really see thru eyes of 'bots 
In terms of future species health 
The answer mattered not.
"Let's suppose such was the case
(they acted in this way)
That meant whatever thoughts were theirs 

would never go away.
"And so the planet overgrew 
with many older thoughts
Plus their ancient urge to breed 

Had never been turned off
And what was found throughout 

these death-deprived societies 
Was an overall decline 
in species raw vitality.
"But that's saying it quite kindly, 
they found very bitter pills...
If individuals won't die,
the entire species will.

"And that's exactly what played out 
in some of these Type 2s. 
Over-choked by memes
overfilled and overused.

"They somehow had forgotten 
all the wisdom death can bring 
by obsoleting thoughts
we're better suited burying. 

"Death was a healing salve
The species needs around 

Re-quickening the newer lives 
and fresher thoughts abound 
"And forget did they the lessons 
that our own bodies taught 
about unrestricted growth... 
desireable is not.
"Our body needs programmed cell death 
to serve our body whole
Without this death, we can't survive
as cancer will take hold.

"As cancer cells are just the ones 
that have refused to die,
and arrogant proliferate
the body far and wide. 

"Appropriate analogy
this would seem to be, 
Why death of individuals - 
a great necessity
If the species wants to live 

long and healthily.
"And then on planet Peen we found
a billion dead robots
They suicided on the same day 

same time and same spot.
The reason we can never know... 

A note they never left.
Nobody was left around
to read it, maybe that is best(?)

"We didn't want the humans
ending up with the same fate  

Or some colossal hubris
killing off the human race.
A tragic population
of Immortals Obsolete
had met their end precisely
and with synchronicity
and this too within
our very own galaxy...
the suicides of Peen
But for grace of 'Ah' go we.  

"So we changed the slope of progress
to avoid this kind of scene
But there's further method madness
not displayed, quite as of yet
Only later revelations come
only when you smarter get"
