Nightmare

I had an awful dream last night.
Hawking and Dawkins were having a fight.

“They won’t do, Davros!” the evolutionist said...
"We must make the Darleks run on dark energy instead!”

“All that’s important is that we maintain their sleep-state…
some are starting to awaken... sensing your hate!
So settle your score with God later on…
when the Darleks are completed and we’ve finally won.”

“What about those who continue to resist?
When we tell them to fight they just cease and desist.”

“The programming is progressive it might take a while...
but sooner or later they’ll all stand in file.
When we go to full power all their thoughts will be gone…
an obedient army who will function as one.”

“And so the proud monkeys now cyber machines -
will have exchanged their humanity for a few empty dreams.”

“Dreams and illusions.” the cosmologist said,
“The best thing about apes is they’re so easily led!”
