by Percy Bysshe Shelley

I met a programmer from an antique land,
Who said — "A legacy Java service
runs in the data center. . . . There, in the cabinets,
Half throttled, a shattered server runs, whose GRUB,
And nginx, and systemd's relentless boot,
Tell that its admin well the manpage read
Which yet survives in /usr/share/man.
The JVM that ran it and SpringBoot that served;
And in the README.md these words appear:
Enterprise system, fast and scalable;
Send thy Requests, ye Mighty, and despair!
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, only internal server errors
and redirects stretch far away."
