Git fucks you up
It fucks you up, git.
It may not mean to, but it does.
It fills you with the faults it has
And add some extra, just for you.
But it was fucked up in it's turn
By fools in old-style hats and coats,
Who half the time were soppy-stern
And half at one another’s throats.
Man hands on misery to man.
It deepens like a coastal shelf.
Get out as early as you can,
And don’t use git yourself.

This be the Verse -- Philip Larkin
