Machines don't bleed

Fall in Love with my transistors
Give my nuts and bolts a little
Blood to loosen them up

My hard-drive needs a little love
But how does one save love on a floppy?

I want to be a machine
For
Machines don't bleed

Will my tears rust the gears
And shut me down?
Loneliness included
Mechanical suicide

Poems "You are not Kurt Schwitters" and "Machines don't bleed" published in the book EDGES by Joseph B. Raimond, Mirran Thought, City Verlag Nürnberg, Germany.
