For the 'Third Level':

For here you are,
A cogless,  meshless, automation;
A body upon whom officials had performed clinical autopsy,
And left all of you that mattered back upon empty seas,
And strewn over darkened hills.

Here you are,
Bone dry, bottle empty, fireless.
Chill, with only your hands to give death to men. (In self defense.)
A pair of hands is all you are now...
