We will be lost in time, like tears in rain. A sonnet on robotic foxes.

### Foxrunner

Synthetic fur and iron bones made real,

Cosmetic ears and eyes of feral scope,

With hypothetic sims and nerves of steel,

And cybernetic limbs, run turns to lope,

Through modularity they swift adapt,

With regularity they oft update,

Potentialities of theirs untapped,

Irregularities they emulate,

An automatic evolution new,

Eliminating debts of old designs,

But technocratic revolution too,

By imitating quasi-human lines,

We wonder as they seem to slumber deep,

If android foxes dream of metal sheep.
