OK, and I also don't know if any of you
have ever seen "Star Trek: Next Generations"
because that's a ways back now, but I
used to watch that when my son lived at home.
So this is called "Next Generations."
"But on "Star Trek" we aren't the Borg,
the aggressive conglomerate, each member part
humanoid, part machine, bent on assimilating foreign cultures.
In fact, we destroy their ship night
after night in preparation for sleep.
We sense something's wrong when our ideal selves look
like contract players.
The captain plays what's left of believable authority
as a Shakespearean actor.
The rest are there to show surprise each time
the invading cube appears, until any response seems stupid.
But we forgive them we've made camp in the glitch."
