A Programmer's Poem

My friends all think
that I’m a neb
Cause I spend much time
here on the web
The good things here
I do not abuse
Except lots of time
on hacker news
I don’t read reddit
I will not digg
I’m not on facebook
My work’s too big
I do not text
I do not tweet
I just work on
Things that are neat
I check email
throughout the day
But there are no games
that I will play
My phone’s on vibrate
I do not chat
My work is really
Where it’s at
Knuth and Turing
are my big heroes
I love to move
Ones and zeros
My head is down
I’m in the mode
Don’t bother me
I have to code
Those who need me
leave voicemail
I’m much too busy
trying not to fail
I learn on-line
and from my schools
But I must avoid
all sorts of trolls
I can’t believe
I wrote this ode
When I have so much
I have to code
I’m not an addict
I have no drug
I’ve got to go
To fix a bug
