At the top of the Poetry section it says:

"Poetry" is in the eye of the beholder; it could be any of:

Poetry written in Perl
Using perl to generate poetry
Poetry about Perl/PerlMonks

So, there is no compilation requirement here at the Monastery. The 1st bullet item implies that it should compile; the 2nd bullet should compile; the 3rd is usually just plain text with a Perl theme.

Fifteen men on a dead man's chest Java is terrible but Perl is best CountZero A program should be light and agile, its subroutines connected like a string of pearls.
