Survivors Rise

My thinking brain is made of circuits and wires
My flesh made of stainless steel and rubber joints
Made by the scientists and makers of modernity
All the while, our natural world burns in a fire
The world we love and born in, losing its voice
Killing ourselves, nothing more, nothing less
All are made of steel, metallic enforced diversity
Give our species hope and love, not conformity
Only those who challenge the crowd, progress
Only those who speak when told to be silent
They must raise awareness, break the quiet
Symbolically tossing the survivors a rope
Allowing a humanity to rise, again
Speaking to all of our true problems
Offering solutions and hope
