This?
All Watched Over by Machines of Loving Grace
I like to think (and
the sooner the better!)
of a cybernetic meadow
where mammals and computers
live together in mutually
programming harmony
like pure water
touching clear sky.
I like to think
(right now, please!)
of a cybernetic forest
filled with pines and electronics
where deer stroll peacefully
past computers
as if they were flowers
with spinning blossoms.
I like to think
(it has to be!)
of a cybernetic ecology
where we are free of our labors
and joined back to nature,
returned to our mammal
brothers and sisters,
and all watched over
by machines of loving grace.
Yes, you are correct! The narrator of "All Watched Over by Machines of Loving Grace" wants computers and living things to live together in a natural harmony. This is expressed through the title of the poem itself, which implies a utopian vision where machines and nature coexist peacefully. The narrator envisions a world where technology serves as a benevolent force that supports and uplifts both humans and the natural world.
