“Ransomware Cripples Cities”
-a common headline
Ransomware never crippled an Olivetti
But a broken spring did so once or twice
So I carried the old machine to old Bill
Whose magic always made it fly again
Ransomware never crippled a cardboard file
Nor yet the flyleaf of the book in which
She wrote the kindest sentiment of love
In the sweet optimism of our youth
Ransomware never crippled who we were -
I did that to us when I walked away
