if Shakespeare had been a programmer

SONNET '\0'

Let me not to the release of true compilers
Admit impediments. Code is not code
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove:
O no! it is an ever-fixed line
That looks on OSs and is never compiled;
It is the star to every operating system,
Whose worth's unknown, although own source be open.
Code's not Time's fool, though pattern used lines and comments
Within own flow comes:
Code alters not with own brief hours and weeks in runtime,
But hears even to the uncountable numbers of core dump.
If this be error and upon me tested,
I never writ, nor no code ever compiled.
