Freedom
December 16, 2005
I spent all day thinking about her
I thought, this was the one and I was sure
Maybe it's her beauty, maybe it's her style
But when I hit enter to start the compile
Everything fell apart, to my surprise
It was a complex bug, in a simple disguise
The screen read, internal compiler error
Frantic, and face filled with terror
I checked my logic, I checked it twice
The syntax was perfect, to the point, and precise
No matter what I did, no matter what I said
I got no response with grep, tail, or head
Was it a race condition, or an infinite loop?
It didn't matter, it was time to regroup
The problem at hand, her operating system
It had to be replaced, for one with freedom
