Robotized
Melissa Knoblett-Aman
Glassy emotionless eyes
fixed straight forward,
in a daze.
Mobility appears spiritless,
never altering.
automatically arise
gear into motion
don habiliments
mechanically proceed to destination
clock chimes five
perfunctorily revert to the dwelling place
stoically view the home entertainment device
then
attain six to eight hours doss
awaken the ensuing daybreak
enter the monotonous eternal cycle
de novo
