A poet I wrote for my girlfriend a while ago. 
#!/usr/bin/perl
my @mind = ([12,11,11,11],[4,23,3,23],[1,55],[0,57],[0,57],[0,57],
[0,57],[1,54],[2,53],[4,49],[6,45],[9,41],[11,37],[14,30],
[17,24],[19,19],[23,13],[25,7],[28,1]);
open HEART, "<$0";
my @love = <HEART>;
our $hands = join("", @love);
$hands=~s/[\s\t]//g;
foreach $cell (@mind){
    foreach $atom (@$cell){
        $first=$first?0:1;
        print " "x$atom if $first;
        print substr($hands, 0, $atom, "") unless $first;
    }
    print "\n";
}
