Nay, a QUILL, to my surprise Poor Yoric brings a message from across the Ocean wide America, it beckons, but mine eloquence must hide “A QUILL! A QUILL!” Poor Yoric says, and master’s vain approve “A message from Bill Gates for thee – is it time that thy should move?” “Bill Gates?” I asketh: “Who be that and whence from he doth came? I'll shut yon gates!” was my reply, “until he become Pewter And troth my plight neart Buzzard's Eye!” I said to my disputer. “Avast ye wenches, and brave men, let's storm the Gates, come hither My, my crow's oft enturned aside, thy'll see yon Bill Gates wither!” Prithee, I have no need of Bill Gates' Word, as a Wordsmith I am too A pox be 'pon his gonads lad! (and verily a plague or two.) Now storm the gates of Bill's domain and crush the scoundrel cur Don't bother me with Pewter talk and how much his hard drives err I stand alone and proudly gazeth over my own Vista With quill in th'and I'll scrawl my words in spite of this damned blister On me thumb forsooth and in the graveyard we will growl and rage And Camarra doth cry: “Out damned Spot!” as the dog pees on his page. KUBUNTU! END
