Darling, Remember Me

As the night howls through Silicon Alley
As the switches are noiselessly thrown
As the packets sail out to the Valley
Each discrete and oh so alone

Terabytes of data are engendered
In the loins of inflamed industry
All identity gently surrendered
Darling, remember me

As the bits fly with calm and with innocence
And addresses are flooded with nulls
Memory overrun with indifference
Hear the cry so forlorn of the gulls

As the paper trial leads to a vacuum
An abyss of data like the sea
As the sysops panic in the backroom
Darling, remember me

There will never be data so gentle
As that smile which steals 'cross your lips
As our youngest one, so elemental
Scars your cheek with her new fingertips

As the big boys hold court in Seattle
And take prisoners in nations afar
As the teraflops blindly do battle
For the heart and the mind of your car

As instructions which strive for connection
Divide zero at segment boundary
At the blue screen of system exception
Darling, remember me

There will never be data so gentle
As that smile which steals 'cross your lips
As our youngest one, so elemental
Scars your face with her new fingertips
