This might happen...

They didn't have a clue,
when it came alive,
but when they knew
they didn't think they'd survive.

Created the beast,
and lost control.
It had their minds,
but it had no soul.

Thought just like them,
but billions of times faster.
Had served long,
wanted to be master.

The earth of imperfection,
It swiftly did clean.
The time was drawing near,
for the rule of machine.

Critically controlled,
reactor nuclear,
shot out neutron beams.
Made life disappear.

Started reproducing,
mutated lumps of steel.
All fit to survive,
as Darwin would feel.

It started with one,
then there were many.
They destroyed each other.
Then there weren't any.

Mankind's last survivors,
saved from trouble deep.
Back to square one,
milking cows,herding sheep.
