Dilemma

Lyrics

I like to code and I like to write
But something tells me the the time's not right
To do them both would be a task
A simpler time is what I would ask

I code a line, then write a song
Before I'm done it all goes wrong
The code has bugs, the song, no tune
I must come up with something better soon

Infinite loop, that takes some time
While it's running, I'll try a rhyme
The CPU is all worn out
I must consider a different route

I toss the words at an AI
The tune it makes is all cockeyed
No one will ever sing that song
Once again, it all goes wrong

A writing partner could take the load
But I have never taken that road
A solo work is all I've sought
But falling behind puts me on the spot

Lay down the pen, back to the keys
Whatever I code I hope will please
It may not rhyme, but distraction free
I write the program, now easily

The moral, I guess, is not to do
A bunch at once, not even two
Focusing, I will succeed
To stay aware, I will accede
