The Lamentations of Mark: Ode to MLE

It's sad to say

I'd rather be

Alone, at home

With MLC

If you could see

How MLC

Has set me free

From ennui

Then you would say

It's not so grey

To sit and play

This everyday

Although at home

A little gnome

Is free to roam

And steal my tome

And yet to be

So far away

From MLC

Stuck in this play

My brain's not free

It turns to foam

Like on the sea

I slowly roam

Without a quay

Or a key

'Cos all alone

I'm not at home

So I'm not free

to MLC

I wrote this during a boring meeting at the request of Mark to see what I could rhyme with MLC... You can put MLE in there too as you study for that, Mark :) The poem probably needs a little work, but it kept me busy for a little during a boring meeting and that's what matters.
