A poem for Aaron

Aaron at podium

This is about a boy called Aaron When fourteen he helped play a part In writing some of the code that makes the web start

When Twenty he made some of the most popular sites like Reddit When Twenty Two he downloaded most of the knowledge tree Hoping to set it free

He got caught Aaron distraught Killed himself at twenty six

And the corporations sighed in relief One more hacker threat neutralized We got lot more to be realized

We own the cops , lawyers and the news In the meantime, lets be nice for public relationship views And send some roses to Aaron’s mom
