While I admire the insights of many of the people in the world of computing, I get this cold feeling that I speak a different language.

An Evil Stepmother

An evil stepmother
a bad calculating mother
teaches her own children
values morals of little worth.

Rebeca, I Know

Rebeca, You're not
as you claim,
taking my name-
my friend,
but fiend.
I have my foe,
I know,
my bosom one
None.
I'm calculative, not got
anything cheaply,
shamelessly,
wonderfully.
I can read palm,
know cold and warm
Don't try to fool me,
You won't successful be!

Calculations

The competency of calculations exceeds my expectations,
Like living in the wilderness, we calculate somehow;
The reasoning of jests pierces us in the jet of life,
Then life gave mathematical problems, of the hour.

This moon in the sky, when the sky collapses,
Knocks on the door, knocks again and repeatedly;
The sums and products of the deeds in life
Master us in ourselves, even my attention is praised.
