In Which Moore Ponders Life as a Software Module

If I were a module,
Within a big PC,
I'd hide my code from prying eyes,
So no one could run me.

My arguments would be arcane,
Return value unknown,
Running time? Undefined!
Memory leak prone.

I'd never merge my sources,
My branch would not commit,
The SRD and SDD?
They're lost, so deal with it!

But if I ever felt the need,
I'd boot up and I'd make,
I'd get things done and still have time,
For a slice of cheesecake.


My question for you, dear reader, is this. How would you find life if you were not a person, but instead, your own source materials. Not a student, nor an engineer, but a thesis or an engine.
