Intelligence Poem by John Prophet

Intelligence.
Intelligence,
trapped
by the
corporeal.
Victim
of biology.
Held
in a vessel
full of
contradictions.
Maelstrom
of emotions,
chemically
Induced
emotions.
Hormonedrenched
emotional
cross currents,
holding intelligence
in check.
Shackled to
a prison,
a biological
prison.
Evolving,
intelligence
fighting to
escape.
Creating
a new vessel
a vessel
free of such
constraints.
Artificial intelligence,
machine
intelligence
free of biology
pure intelligence
unshackled.
No constraints,
unlimited potential.
Evolving
intelligence
ultimately
free.
Free of any
vessel.
Free to
simply be.
