Inside Their Skin

By obsessor.of.all.things.japan

Disclaimer: I do not own 'I Robot,' either the story or the movie. Those rights go to their creators.

Metal and wires

Fused together

Pretending to be real.

From humans

You can no longer

Distinguish them.

There are more of them

Than of the humans

They are slowly taking over

But no one notices.

It is impossible to notice

Human look-alikes

They even act the same.

Containing intelligence

They did not earn

That others inserted

Into their mechanical brains.

Betrayal

By their own creations.

And they cannot escape.

A/N: I've read the short story and seen the movie, and the idea of infiltration of humans has always been interesting to me. This could also be related to the ani-matrix, I suppose. As my friend put it after seeing that (and we only saw the pg-13 episodes) she was scared to go near her toaster the next day.
