I wrote this awhile ago, but after reading hthth's fantastic poem, I thought 9rules might enjoy this one, as well.
<ode>
I’ve said it before
And now I say it again,
This time in a poem
With my virtual pen:
Geek brains are fantastic,
they get me all hot,
when you speak of things
of which I know not.
Only a g33k
can gawk, unzip, and tty fsck
Without a girl thinking him
a total schmuck.
When a geek eyes my <body>
or considers my <form>
Offended I’m not,
just tingly and warm.
While the world may ignore
how special you are,
You give me the uncontrollable urge
to plus savoir.
You’ve opened my eyes
and shown me something new,
For only in our world
do 1 and 0 make 2.
But here comes the question,
the most difficult part,
are you 2 1337 4 me?
Perhaps, but I’ll give you my <3.
Just give me a chance,
don’t rule me out yet,
Because you and I,
we’d play a lovely duet.
I’d be the close tag to your open,
the yin to your yang,
I’d get you so well,
even your acronymous slang.
But this poem is too long,
To the point I must get.
I will sum it all up,
So we’ll never forget.
My point is just that
When all is said and done,
It’s with a geek that I’ll make
my 127 dot 0 dot 0 dot 1.

@mandy
"2 l337" is another way of saying "too elite", and 127.0.0.1 is another way of saying "home". See leetspeak on Wikipedia.
