I was reading through the poetry blog of Mark Hibbet… Hey Hey 16k<\/a> for those of you who know it, and those who don’t go and check it out now..<\/p>\n

Anyway, I cam across this gem;<\/p>\n

\n Programming Is A Poetry For Our Time.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Take a complicated idea
\nAnd make the underlying point of it clear
\nCompress it down to fit in memory
\nNow tell me what’s the difference
\nBetween programming and poetry?<\/p>\n

Programming is a poetry for our time
\nIt’s a poetry for our time
\n…\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I’ve snippet the rest for copyright reasons, but you can check it out here<\/a>… <\/p>\n

Also, check out his other lyrics here<\/a>…<\/p>\n
