"The Alchemical Automaton Blues" by Ian McHugh

First appeared in Andromeda Spaceways.

An early story--not as strong but, nonetheless, moving.  A golem is lonely and moans, annoying neighbors, so the narrator agrees to have something done about it.  But they simply take its voice away.  Sad, but no resolution.  It's unclear why this character is narrating.
