'Twas brillig and the master geeks
Did hack and twiddle in the lab
On holidays were the petty peeps
And budget committees on the slab

"Wait for the next release, hackers!
The bugs that bite, the SRFIs lack!
Beware the ancient runtime woes and shun
The FFI attack!"

They took their Emacs and their cokes
Long time the code to frobnicate
And hacked all night until the light
Reduced their brains to nought

And, as the latte filled their veins,
New Bug reports, but yet the same
Came whining through the Usenet chain,
Newbies babbling to complain!

One, two! One, two! And through and through
The hackers' keys went clicky-clack
The bugs left dead, and newbies fed
They compiled the codebase black

"And has thou released the version new?
Come to my bar, I'll Beamish buy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!"
We chortled in our joy.

'Twas brillig and the master geeks
Did hack and twiddle in the lab
On holidays were the petty peeps
And budget committees on the slab
