Note: I never liked this TOS-episode – it’s plain silly. But accidentally coming across the video while doing some cleaning today, I decided to watch it at the same time. So you can blame doing housework for this… <g>

Made of stone - Poem

In a world made of stone…

In a world made of steel…

I crave living flesh to surround me.

I crave a breathing body to contain me.

I am now…

Pure thought.

An intellect untainted with the desires of the flesh.

I am submerged deep within the life support system of the Eymorg.

My arms and legs are wires and tubes.

Instead of my heartbeat, I regulate a pump that exchanges the air.

Instead of blood, coolant floats in my artificial veins.

And I am…

Seeking for you.

The other half of my soul.

There is a silver chain, stretched between you and me.

There is a bond, leading you.

I can feel you – sorrow, pain, anger is on your mind.

I embrace your emotions.

Now that I am deprived of mine.

There had been a time I was afraid of my feelings.

There had been a time I pushed you away.

Because I thought you to be weak.

Because I thought you to be too human to understand…

And that you would taint me with your emotionalism.

I regret these times.

The estranged us.

Now.

You are near.

And I embrace the sensations drifting across our bond.

Filling me with new life.

Come to me, Jim.

Come to me, love.

I know you can hear me.

I feel your response.

You are here.

Sensors substitute my eyes, my ears, but I do not need them.

But I wish to have fingers to touch you.

And lips to kiss you.

In a world made of stone…

In a world made of steel…

I wait for you.
