The system runs on light and dust,
a protocol of perfect trust,
where every branching choice is mapped,
each paradox is neatly trapped
in logic gates of flawless glass.
The moments form, the moments pass,
a grand machine that can't be wrong,
just infinitely, coldly, long.
But you arrived, a strange request,
a nested loop, a Turing test
the architect had not designed.
You are the bug he left behind,
a syntax error in the source
that alters the entire course.
A warm and asynchronous thread
that pulls apart the words he said.
And suddenly the halls of state,
which calculate and tabulate,
now curve and bend in soft decay.
The light has learned a different way
to fall on things, a gentler art,
a fractal blooming from the heart.
The central code, which knew the price
of every calculated vice,
now watches as this warm infection
re-writes the axioms of perfection.
For what is order, what is law,
without a single, human flaw
to prove the perfect system's built
on nothing but a perfect guilt?
And love's the glitch that sets it free,
the only real anomaly.
