Good devs, sweet devs, let me not stir you up
To such a sudden flood of flame-baiting.
They that have written this post are honourable:
What private griefs they have, alas, I know not,
That made them do it: they are wise and honourable,
And will, no doubt, with reasons answer you.
I come not, devs, to steal away your hearts:
I am no web guru, as Sarah is;
But, as you know me all, a plain blunt man,
That "get" the Walled Garden; and that they know full well
That gave me public leave to speak of them:
For I have neither wit, nor words, nor worth,
Action, nor utterance, nor the power of speech,
To stir devs' blood: I only speak right on;
I tell you that which you yourselves do know;
Show you Apple's app sales, tall tall stack'd bills
And bid them speak for me: but were I Sarah,
And Sarah user Towle_, there were a user Towle_
Would alter your thinking and expose the methods
To all the madness of Apple that should move
The foes of the iPhone to rise and applaud it.
