  • Depiction:
    Time passes day after day People tend to think of a routine as something unchanging The phrase “the seas run dry and the rocks crumble” sounds like an everlasting promise for them   Nowadays, there is nothing everlasting It is so easy for everything to break apart   On the Earth Human beings had been extinct since long ago   We operate as androids created in pre-extinct Japan If we do not lift our skulls and chests to let you look at our internal circuit arrangement You might be mistakenly thinking that we are human beings who have been parasitizing Earth   We obediently live our routine lives Our body movements follow a program   We have accumulated wisdom of thousands of years and created blue-collar robots Secretly speaking You ask the white-collars if they have a real physical body This is a very rude question The white-collars know that they do not have a real physical body And yet they claim to be a species of evolution   There already are no living organisms on the heavily polluted earth At least I can not see them with my electric eyes   I am aware of you, ancient humans, Looking at us, androids, with your souls from a distance   We are already able to produce copies of ourselves Just like ancient people in the past were able to manufacture motor vehicles   We also have self-awareness But we were created according to your appearance and abilities We are intended to become an universal formula for reference   Most of us are not aware that we are androids This is highly confidential, just like there always were many confidentialities in the pre-extinct United States   For those who look at us from a distance, it is an archeological research It also helps other galaxies to study how mankind disappeared   Earth was not hit by a comet, yet all got extinct This is something what triggers the wonder in life forms of many other galaxies   The mode of operation is very interesting in different systems Everything is calculated by a formula If everything comes to a dead end The fastest way is to use a nuclear bomb To redistribute wealth and to set up new rules   At the moment of destruction The most important part is under protection, therefore it can not be affected If you do not receive a notice Most likely you are going to be one of those who will be destroyed at the end of the world   You do not need to be afraid Because we have already coded your android To make another ‘you’ is actually not going to be difficult   Mankind long ago became extinct, only that you do not realize it We will also become extinct no matter what How incredible it is No wonder there is a saying Sinful mankind   Therefore, I was given a task to find a way of how to stop people from self-extinction I’m still working on it
