My joints were the first to go
Replaced by tiny whirring gears
Beautiful
Like clockwork

My bones became brass rods
Sturdy and smooth
Flawless
Like clockwork

Glass lenses for my eyes
Gleaming in the light
Magnificent
Like clockwork

My stomach became a boiler
And my heart became a clock
Ticking, ticking, ticking, ticking
Driving my gears

My vessels filled with oil
My breath with searing steam
Ticking, ticking, ticking, ticking
On went my gears

And then my mind became
My mind became
My mind became
My mind became
My mind became
My mind became
My mind became
Like clockwork
