Analysis of Hootenannies



From scans to cameras,
which serve as android eyes,
one hundred hootenannies fill our daily guise.

From prints to copiers,
which serve as android aides,
one hundred hootenannies fill our daily trades.

From tapes to recorders,
which serve as android sounds,
one hundred hootenannies fill our daily rounds.

From films to cinemas,
which serve as android shows,
one hundred hootenannies fill our daily throes.

From buffs to polishers,
which serve as android maids,
one hundred hootenannies fill our daily wades.

From pods to computers,
which serve as android wives,
one hundred hootenannies fill our daily lives.
