Snake

Monster
Caught in lead and steel
Frozen
In time

Human
Caught in the machine
Enslaved
Forever

Somewhere
An artist smirks
And settles
To eternal sleep

This was a sculpture spotted during a day trip to Hastings many years ago.

    Very nice poem. You depicted the reality of life, of depending on technology too much. Clever poem. Good job!
