Comm 1010

Jun 21, 2004 16:48

So this comm class I have to take has made me do something I don't normally do on a daily basis.. write poetry.

Sure I coulda chickened out and stolen song lyrics, changed them a little, and read them with some inflection of hate, but I don't do that.

Stealing lyrics is wrong and shameful and you should be smited by the hand of the RIAA for it. Fucking RIAA.. they should be focusing on half-assed productions rather than music downloaders.. but anyways.

Without further ado
I give you

What the fuck,
I mean, wtf.. mate
Lol I mean m8
C, u can’t just talk normal anymore.
Or, maybe you can, but you can’t type normal anymore.
U have to use all the crazy combinations
That may seem to some like semaphore

2 me though, it’s 2nd nature.
These are my people.
My people are 1337 h4x0rz
My people say joo, and f00
And some of you are saying who and who?

W8 w8 w8 / Let me break it down for you.
A’s are now 4s
O’s are now zeros
The L and the T and the E
They’ve all changed to 1 and 7 and 3
See, that wasn’t too hard
It bois down to WYSIWYG
Ya know, wizeewig
…. What you see is what you get?
And by the by,
Anything that was previously A-T-E, in now the number 8
It works better than real English, trust me.

But back to my people
We are wardrivers
We are hackers
We are bloggers, coders, crackers
We are the people that those with ignorance to technology fear the most
And we are unnecessarily considered criminals for it.

Maybe some of us should be to blame?
Maybe Mitnick deserved his time in jail just because he simply used a computer
To go where he could… but maybe shouldn’t have been.
But if jailtime is the punishment for simply exploring an electronic world,
What happens to those that help to destroy it?
The creator of worm virii
He’s sitting atop an MIT building, in an office, eating a piece of LaVerde pie.

But some can’t have our pie
And eat it too.
Take for instance
The 14 y.o. f00
Who took the great professor’s little germ
And turned it into the blaster worm.
He was put in jail
Questioned by the FBI
And HE sure as hell didn’t get any pie.

But there is one thing
One thing
That brings my people together
The good, the bad
The criminal, the… not so innocent.
T3H 1337 SP34K
It’s the sign that
Deep down you’re a geek
It’s the sign that
On some infintesmally
Miniscule
Plane
U No Me

But ya know what
I gotta run
Gotta get me some relaxing fun
Shooting it up in CS
Or maybe a party in FFXI
Wherever I’m gonna be
You’ll know me
The name’s byrdclaw
And I’ll 0wnz0r anyone
From here to Tienamen Square.
Bring it
