Old Manabozho was a crafty
shape shifter
Who met a funny gadget named
Mech one day
The machine said, “Let me
make your life go swifter
You look so inconvenienced in
your primitive way”
Old Manabozho was hungry for
adventure
And hadn’t seen a creature
like Mech before
He didn’t know the gadget was
a masterful entrencher
The cost of its admission
wasn’t marked on the door

Manabozho then
elected

To step inside
to see what Mech did

He got deep
fried, nuked, convected
A G# G
Spliced,
rewinded, vivisected

The shiny new
machine had swallowed Manabozho whole
Old Manabozho’s predicament
was dire
He was discombobulated,
battered, hazed and contused
He found a naked wire and
then he got inspired
“A fire in this belly is a
thing I could use!”
Now, the not-so-funny Mech
laughed “Don’t you even try it!
I heard that story yesterday
My memory remembers and my
processors apply it
Evolving adaptation is the
natural way.”
Old Manabozho changed his
voice
He said, “You’re the shiniest
suit I’ve seen
Your belts and gears are my
style of choice
I’ll be handsome when I’m
fashioned in my new machine
Manabozho
changed his shape and
The new machine
retaliated
They both
fought and sparred and raided
Sneak attacked
and counter-invaded
Deconstructed
all the day ‘til
The shiny new
machine had finally given up the ghost
Old Manabozho was a crafty
shape shifter
Who fashioned a mechanical
suit one day
He’s worn it ever since and
he’s always moving swifter
In expediently deft and
technological ways
He lives inside your switches,
knobs and spools
Ink pens, toaster and digital
bits
If something funny happens with
any of your tools

You know that Manabozho the
crafty shape shifter is playing another trick
