The Geek's Raven
[An excerpt, with thanks to Marcus Bales]

Once upon a midnight dreary,
fingers cramped and vision bleary,
System manuals piled high and wasted paper on the floor,
Longing for the warmth of bedsheets,
Still I sat there, doing spreadsheets:
Having reached the bottom line,
I took a floppy from the drawer.
Typing with a steady hand, I then invoked the SAVE command
But got instead a reprimand: it read "Abort, Retry, Ignore".

Belladonna, Konstantin Balmont, from Russian

Ecstasy's purgatory -- Silent and alone: A flowery delivery, Midst the turmoil of home. Starlight unshining, All knowings unknown, Quietly enjoying A forbidden dream. Belladonna's blissful twilight -- The kiss of death. She's dreamy eyed, Loving her days to forget. Blossoming moonlight, Tender moons meeting, A quiet wind rustling, A loving death. Beloved, we linger. Beloved, my Delight! A joyful complaining, Midst flowers -- a snake! Whose spirit downtrodden Desire's stench besotten, Whose Belladonna blossom -- Yours, or mine?
