Bill Gates - "Man of the Year" ???

My DOS/Win dot 3 worked just fine
But a new LapTop I'd  find
	About  19-96
	A horrible fix
Ensnared me in a bad bind

The ThinkPad and Windows were wed
In the factory, in the same bed
	They shipped 95
	To keep it alive
An upgrade to 98 I ded

98 was very much worse
I should have known it of course
	It choked very hard
	When I tried a sound card
All I could do was to curse

The most outrageous abuse
When Netscape I tried to use
	Explorer stomped in
	GPF'd it like sin
Unplug it was all I could douche

My times not worth much anymore
I'm just an old Pro-fes-sore  
	With me it's my health
	Compared to his wealth
His geek thugs are what I deplore

When at the young age 23
Keats got a bad case of TB
	He wrote some lines
	That helped me define
What Bill Gates has taken from me

"When I have thoughts that I may cease to be
Before my pen has gleaned my teeming brain"

I have tried to put it in rhyme
Think about it in your spare time
	And then you will see
	What my time's worth to me
To take it away was a crime.
