Hi, all. I just write a poem that is simultaneously English and Java! It's bilingual, it's trans-species, it's in haiku form, and it's about the nature of love. You can read more about it and find out some interesting tidbits over at my blog, or you can just see the code here:
Code:
/*I see you in*/ class
You {double my; //happiness
long as; You are; //'round
static //and quiet
public/*ly I can't show how
Much you mean to me*/
/*My life's been a*/ void
main/*ly a*/( String of[]){ //failures
{}You make; //me hopeful
/*One day in class*/ You
Wear; /*a gorgeous dress and I
Choose to take the dive*/
/*I say I love*/ You
But; You don//'t reciprocate
;//Sheepishly I leave
/*I*/ try {//to move on
System//ize my life and just
/*Throw*/ .out //emotions
//Still my pen won't stop
/*I feel I must*/ .print( /*some lines
Telling*/ of[0] //my thoughts
/*Why*/+" is "+//it the case
/*That we cannot all be*/ "loved");//?
}/*This is love's big*/ catch
/*But then I find a
Truth without*/ (Exception and){}
finally {//I see
/*You may not be loved
By those whom you fancy most
But someone loves you*/}}}
What do you think? You should all try your hand at some code poetry in the language of your choice. It's wayyyyy fun! (I only wish I could turn it in to my Creative Writing class for a grade...) |

I wrote a haiku cat simulator for english class a few years ago. It actually compiled, ran, and printed random info about the state of your cat, but for programming in English, there's nothing quite like Shakespeare
