Programmer's sonet

        by Yury Nesterenko

Processing data is the only thing
Deserving to the mind, its aim and right.
The world, seen by the passionless sight,
Is nothing but the data it will bring.

Get information every day and night,
Process it byte by byte, translate and link.
What can be more insulting than the string,
The cruel, silly string "Access denied"!

Use sources which belong to every kind:
Unthinking matter and the other mind
Are things you can explore and explain...

Processing fails? Repeat until success.
And, when there is no data to process,
Disable interrupts and halt your brain.

				1995
