To be honest, if I read this poem written by someone else, I would probably think "whoa!" I'm not so much of a 'transhumanism, yay!' type either, but the last three lines randomly popped into my head, and they seemed suited to a poem about transhumanism rather than a poem about, say, flowers. Presenting ideas that jar with people a little bit is a good way to get comments, as demonstrated.
