Mechanical Thing

Eyes look out from this cell, limbs of flesh and bone function mechanically on the hard black plastic, a puppet with no strings, I don't recognise this thing, sounds come, they echo of reality, is this whats expected of the shell? must it continue to function? they talk to it, they smile unsure at it, but it leaves no shadow from the sun.
Mechanical, mechanical, mechanical creature, what function do you serve? the space you occupy wasted, how long still?

When a mechanical object is new, it works fine for a while or serve its purpose in life until it reached a stage that it needs maintenance, or it breaks because no preventive maintenance were applied.

Perhaps this mechanical object has reached both stages and now it needs to be repaired and maintained.

What do you do when a mechanical object has broken? You either fix it yourself by obtaining the correct bits and pieces and maintenance material to get it going again, or even better in most cases, take it to the professionals, leave it with them for as long as it will take them to fix it. The latter is better because most likely you do not have the right tools to take it apart and put it together again.

Best advise if you ask me, let the professionals fix it. then you know that it is fixed and the most important thing is that you get a guarantee for the work done.

How about that and let me know what you think about this idea?
