But I don't think the code actually rhymed. This was actually put to me as a challenge by a friend. He didn't specify that actually had to do anything worth while and it doesn't. But it's syntactically correct, runs without error but doesn't produce any output. When making it, I wasn't producing it specifically to be part of the Microcode selection but it's an interesting experiment so I added it to the site.
best r. Pall oh... ps. I made a slight mistake in the "read" example. It should of course be "If two equals two OR love matches u", not "AND love matches u". This makes a big difference since it means that the code within is executed but what is after the "else" statement is not. Otherwise it would produce output.
