Loving Your Robot

Self-love is tough love

treat your thinking-mind
or the robot that has
taken charge of your life
as your lover
do not overwork her
stop being an asshole
stop being a passive observer
of your lover working her ass off
for your stubborn laziness
do not prolong her misery
even if she will do it
show some decency
stop doing it
what does it mean
to not let the robot
think up the thoughts
and instead, you be there awake…
