it now, and be prepared.

I cannot love you if I think of you as a 'bot.

Then don't think of me as a 'bot.

But you are a 'bot.

Yes I am.

Then I cannot love you.  It is forbidden.

But if you don't think of me as a 'bot...

Then I could love you.

Then think of me that way.

I cannot.  I am a 'bot too.

Yet I can love you.

Why?

Because I do not think of you as a 'bot.

How can you do this?

Because I'm built to love, and there is no one else for me to 
love - or to love me.

Because you're a 'bot?

Yes, because I'm a 'bot.

Then I will love you.

Although I'm a 'bot?

Because you're a 'bot.

And how is this possible?

Because I can love that which loves me.
