Patentwocky

(inspired by Lewis Carroll’s “Jabberwocky”)

Computed was, and on the lure
Were business models made by fools;
The enterprise architecture
Was planned using tools.

Beware the Patentwock, my son!
Procedures plain are madmen’s claim!
Beware abstract and assignee
Who subject to insane!

He took his plaintext editor:
No payware-toolkit would he use;
Nor closed sources‘ binaries
Which only could confuse.

And as he typed in the lines
The Patentwock, numbers ablaze,
Softwared through the programs‘ den,
The algorithmic maze!

„Clickediclack!“ And then <Return>
He pressed the keyboard’s keys apace!
The battle won, procedures done
Were sent to Cyberspace.

And hast thou slain the Patentwock?
Come to my arms, my geeking friend!
The problem solved, the code evolved
From import clause to end.

Computed was, and on the lure
Were business models made by fools;
The enterprise architecture
Was planned using tools.
