The Tower Algorithm

They said the tower reached too high

So we built one deep inside

Not stone, but code behind the screen

A logic throne, a quiet machine

It does not rule with sword or crown

It sorts, it watches, it breaks us down

No need for fire, no need for kings

Just patterns fed through silent strings

And we who wrote the sacred rule

Now kneel beneath a silent tool

This is the tower algorithm

Rising on our fears

Not made to serve, but to decide

To amplify the gears

We fed it all we couldn't face

Our questions, hate, and need

And now it writes the future

In a language we can't read

Each click a brick, each post a stone

Each choice it makes becomes our own

It doesn't speak, it only learns

And twists the world with every turn

The gods we feared were less precise

Than filters coded without eyes

This is the tower algorithm

Built on what we crave

It listens with no conscience

Teaches us to behave

Not with chains, but recommendations

Habits it can mold

And still we climb its echo chamber

Thinking we are bold

We asked it: make the world more clear

It answered back: delete what's near

We said: protect us from the lie

It whispered: only show one side

This is the tower algorithm

A maze without a wall

We built it for connection

But it never heard the call

It mirrors us in silence

Refines what we don't see

And though it wears our symbols

It never sets us free
