Thousands of years from now
When the robots have long since come for us
Redacted our existence
And spread their own civilization
Will they (or it) have a myth
A complex ontology all their own
When they catch a virus
Will they pray to the thought of us
Our images offering hollow promises of redemption
Maybe
Or maybe they won’t
Then what a salvation we will have given
