Here is my first attempt at poetry with perl.


#!/usr/bin/perl 
# my_poem.pl
BIRTH: $I_Live = 'true';
while ($I_Live){
    I: do {
        say (@strange_things = ( "Rant", "Rave", "Hulicinate", 
                                 "Instigate"));        
    }until ( $I . 'Irritate');
    
    unless ($I_Behave) {
        I_Will: die "From your Anger" unless
            ($I.(pack $my, $bags) && $leave);
    }
}

sub say() {
    print "@_ \n";    
}

I like the output when you run it! Your anger at my poem causes me to to say @strange_things. :p

Rant Rave Hulicinate Instigate
From your Anger at my_poem.pl line 10.
