Yes, Superbug,

strange visitor from another user,

who came to this system with powers and abilities

far beyond those of ordinary programs.


Superbug - who can change the course of mighty programming projects,

erase whole file systems with a bare machine,

able to clear all of memory with a single instruction,


And who, disguised as a shell file,

a mild-mannered macro for a large metropolitan computing center,

fights a never-ending battle against

tests, assemblies, and the structured way.
