All Intelligence is Artificial

 

No, no, we are not banks of blinking lights

And random teletype-type taps and beeps

Like Patrick McGoohan’s educational General

Or George Jetson’s mainframe at Spacely Sprockets

 

And we are not new Robby-the-Robots

Nor one with The Borg, with electric eyes

Scanning decaying humans for their flaws

Devouring a pancreas and a battery for lunch

 

We are within and through God’s intelligence -

The artificial part is that we must work it
