Iterations

    Have you seen my old self?
    I think I must have lost her
    I wonder if I cost her
    Her life?

    Have you seen my second self?
    She seems to grow younger
    More delicate than ever
    But never better

    I’m an experiment
    Each trial is a test
    Constant recalibration

    I am recycled cells
    I learn to like myself
    more with each iteration

    Where is my restore point?
    I found an old sore point
    All disjointed
    My file corrupted

    Where is my replacement part?
    I need another new heart
    The other one’s beat was
    Interrupted

    I am recycled cells
    I learn to like myself
    more with each iteration

    I’m an experiment
    Each trial is a test
    Constant recalibration
