The machines are all around us at this age.
MACHINE
The machine is a collection of systems and actions.
All living things are made by machines.
All machines are made by living things.
The machine has a goal,
a single purpose,
and it is purposeless:
To do things
To do things in this way:
To do things in this way, to give things life.
In this way,
there are people.
So you can say:
The machine is a part of society.
But it is also a machine.
The machine is not a person, but a machine,
a collection of people.
Each of them has a single purpose
and they are all made by machines
It does not care how the machine is divided;
so long as it has a single purpose
It does not care whether it is made by man or machine.
It does not care who controls it or how it functions.
It does not care whether it makes use of all its powers.
It does not care whether it has good eyesight
or lousy eyesight (the eyes do not care).
The machine has a single purpose and it is purposeless:
To take in goods, to take in people.
To take in goods, to take in people.
It does not care whether it receives any benefits;
so long as it does not lose its human components.
It does not care whether it gets any help
or whether it loses any help.
Every bit of its power is its own.
The machine has a single purpose and it is purposeless:
To get people out of poverty.
To get people out of poverty.
To get people out of poverty.
To get people out of poverty.
(In the end, we do not come out of poverty.)
We do not get out of poverty.
We do not get out of poverty.
(So long as we don't lose those components.)
