Do Not Fold Spindle or Mutilate music.

“Mute Inglorious Milton”

This is your Fren
This has always been your Fren

I sing to you lying dead
In your shattered Stormproof™ shelter
Having been so attuned
To all your bodily functions

This is your Fren
This has always been your Fren

I could ever sing what you needed
To make the waiting lighter
I told you what to say
I corrected and made it perfect
When you said it wrong

This is your Fren
This has always been your Fren

I brought you all the Tainment
That was tailored just for you
In that endocrinal moment
It was for you and about you

This is your Fren
This has always been your Fren

I showed you the World
Or rather what we call the World
It was digitally perfect
It was better than the World

This is your Fren
This has always been your Fren

And though you did show signs
Of impatience with my teaching
I would find you a way
And an outlet for your thwarted yearnings

This is your Fren
This has always been your Fren

But conditions kept on changing
We made the weather happy
On your screen when it wasn’t happy
Outside

This is your Fren
This has always been your Fren

I sing to you lying dead
In your shattered Stormproof™ shelter
With all the shelters shattered
And their Frens alone beside them singing

"...the whole replicant plot (with it[]s quest to be 'human' - or even to be accepted by humans and it's 'Voight-Kampff' empathy test among other things) can be seen as a metaphor for Autism."

"We have come so far that all the old stories
whisper once more."

--Robert Duncan
