The Ping From Jesus
In the winter, dark and dreary
There I sat, eyes red and weary
Cutting, pasting, point and click
Coding something monstrous, sick
Over the whine of cooling fans
Came a beep from computer land
Mouse the mailtool, leave no turd
Some more junk from a chatty nerd?
Blossoming forth from cyberspace
Comes a note from a real place
I lose my grip and drift away
Reading ASCII of a special day
A tale of wonder, a song of songs
About a man from then and gone
Mailer’s address sends a clue
Access gateway, break on through . . .

Don't be shy anonymous...
You got a dot from AFRICA! I'm jealous.
At least it wasn't the guys from Nigeria.
