Ant Antihero

Stand down, heroes.
Is fine advice from a superstrategy addict.
Make improve!
Yes, I am a robot.

And I don't grammar when angry.
And I'm angry when I feel broken
looking at things that seem off.
There's no big switch
to push to turn them on.
I hate to admit this.

I want to be the change
and hope to believe in
transformation by thoughtful action.
Our ant colony hears none of it
even when they do.

Marching, foraging,
making more ants,
it's all we are
as we pretend the mountains
are what we make them.

Who has grease for my cybernetic heart?
Is that asking for a savior too?
I'll rust 
but I won't stop
beating on the walls.
