Tower of Babel

Nathan B. Spooner

Didn’t I meet you at the tower of Babel
You were working on a language to control all the rabble.
Didn’t I see you on the Plain of Shinar,
And now we’ve had to travel so far.

Now we do have a language with a binary basis
So don’t even try to get away from the oasis.
Yeah, and you can ignore the book of revelation
Cause you may not know about a soul’s salvation.

It’s a cosmic deploy,  it’s a universal toy
We talking ‘bout more than the girl and the boy.
And as for the changes that manifest now
Don’t even bother to ask why or how.

And with AI creations coming into the equation
Who’s gonna help us, yes who among the Nations.
The robot machine is basically a beast
And what’s that got to do with primary yeast?

Something that changes and eventually grows
Something that feels and might even glow.
Something that creates and emotions may touch
Something the machine may never dream up.

Oh, it can help us in the assembly line.
And will it replace us in the end of times?
And now there is no end to what we might do
And the words there to read, oh yeah, they’re true.

Now you may not feel the cosmic vibration
Maybe you’re too busy going on vacation.
Just remember the elements out there that create us
We don’t always see that stuff and all the dust.

And as for the tower of Babel on the plain of Shinar
Let’s ask ourselves who we really are.
