The Hive turned Metro

The great hive is active, filled with busy drones
And chasing production from morning to night
Walking, lifting, building dreams for the state
Some units are lost to accidents or exhaustion
Loss is regrettable and is organic metal units
As security agents many even have wings 
But without a mother pack they'll not fly
Units are made sturdy, swift, dangerous, 
Keeping out all alien intruders away 
A hive will collapse, a queen will die
Endure or thrive, focus on the many
Not for the one, success requires all
Hives grow to be organic life forms
Life is symbiotic with clockworks
Life but not by DNA, existence
Built  as practical and beautiful
From a distance the buildings
Look as tall skyscrapers 
Or might seem as titans
All seem beautiful
Each has purpose
 From a design
 From need
