my os

(in the style of gil scott-heron)

my os doesn't need to be activated,
it's hacktivated.
my os isn't backwards compatible,
it's forward looking.

my os needs no service pack,
no value pack,
no packaging.
my os comes with no warranty,
my os doesn't allow focus stealing,
my os needs no backroom dealing,

my os needs no monopoly,
cause it's a technopoly,
my os is not property,
it just works properly.

my os even makes toast,
not coasters,
my os boasts no coastline,
my os has a great bassline.

my os has no blue screen of death,
no angel of death,
no death wish,
no bad breath,

my os has no cup holder,
no paperclip,
no wallpaper,
no desktop,
nor other cliche'd novelties
of metaphor

...my os has no release date.
