Poems (well, doggerel!)


Software Pirates Chant

Fifteen Meg from a read() request,
Yo ho ho, and a packet too long!
kill() and SIGSEGV have done for the rest,
Yo ho ho, and a packet too long!

The Millennial Xanadu

Many apologies for not finishing this one off, but I sobered up.

In Greenwich Town did Mandelson a stately pleasure dome decree,
Where Thames the foetid river ran
Past Docklands spiritless to man
Down to a fish-less sea.

OK, so my poetry skills are meagre...
