318. MACHINE AND MAN

When a machine
Wants to think like a man,
   God feels proud of His Dream-Boat.
      He starts singing and dancing.

   When a man
Wants to think like a machine,
   God feels sorry for man’s unevolving life.
      He buries His Mind and Vital
         In the soil of despair-night
                  And
         He drowns His Heart and Soul
      In the giant bosom of failure-sea.
