Sure. However, this may count as using the perl interpreter in 'poetry mode', but if it isn't poetic, then it doesn't really count as a poem :) If it came down to an entry in the Poetry Contest, like the one above, I would like that it works, but would fail the -w and strict tests. So, unless it was very clever, it would be rejected. Still fun, nonetheless :)

I would like things (slightly) clever like:

perl -alien -sex -Fiend 'do { my $elf; } or die "dirty alien"';
