Reactionary?

Reactionary, I am?
For opposing a change
That brings untold sorrow,
Challenge and pain?

Maybe, you reply
With a smile on your face
The world, it keeps spinning
Its natural, I think

Natural? Says I
With no smile or grin
Would you say that of any
Immoral sin?

Change may be natural
And I do not oppose
Change that brings progress
That lifts up the lows

But this time, it's different
Though, Bullshit, you say
Can you see the future
How it will be, one day?

Exactly! I cry
For I know I cannot
Ensure our future
If your change is brought

A future for us
For humanity at large
Is unlikely if we are
To put robots in charge

Relax, you say softly
They’ll serve us, that’s all
There’s no place for Luddites
Or reactionary calls

-------------------------

The future, it’s come
The change, it’s arrived
Is it natural for me
To feel nostalgic at times?

Nostalgic for times
When there was a place
For bonding with humans
And not robots, in space
