Computer Program

Never changed variables in your program.

Never changed anyone’s character.

Characters changed were variables.

Don’t know the input to those variables.

I write poems and stories.

You wanted me to write poems about you.

Never forced anyone to read;

Nor asked the constants to change.

Constants are constants anyway.

Then we have local variables,

National variables,

And global variables.

The wind blows;

Sun shines;

The rain alters;

You are the variable.

The swinging variable.

Not just variable.

Mother of all programs.

She

The Poet Screamed:

She is like water;

You love her;

Ready to be drowned.

She is like air;

Try to catch her;

Nicely escapes.

She is like stone;

Difficult to carve;

Patience is the key.

All that is wrong;

Earth is the right word.

Dig in the right place;

Seed in the right place,

The fertile land,

Of hidden stories.

She smiled :

How is he?

Is he the same?

          Poet silenced without a gun.
