I am a human
raised by a robot
cut loose in the garden
carried on the water
carried on the water
cared for by the winter
and my mind--that's ice
nice nice very nice.
nice nice very nice
making poetry from paper birds
and a magpie in flight
under a fragrant sun
under a fragrant sun
cut loose in a garden grove
where the robot rusts, in time we trust
caried on the water like the rest.

one line is taken from the Ambrosia song.
they stole it from Kurt Vonnegut.
I love this so much! A really cool form. I must try it. Love the repeated lines, especially love "making poetry from paper birds" and the fragrant sun. A beauty of a poem. Thanks for linking, Shay. This poem is a delight to read.
