’Twas the night before launch, at the startup’s warehouse,
Not a feature was working, regardless how grouse,
The laptops were flat, a charged one quite rare,
plug-In hopes from backend plus stable software;
The team had wrestled bugs in all of their threads,
File revisions of prod increased line spreads…
The CEO in her disbelief still thinking it was a trap,
Had little runway leftover and a large funding gap,
When out out of the old server there spun up a platter,
I saw it hang for a bit before proof of our grey matter,
Away went the Windows server, I still feared a crash,
Wide-open, no buffer, it filled up the cashe.
The tune of the fans trimmed and the lights sure did glow,
Gave way to a console so on with the show,
Then POP went a cork and clink went a beer,
Team members celebrated and gone went the fear.
Fixing a really old driver, a patch did the trick,
In rushed the traffic, requests came fast and thick,
Users flocked like seagulls, like it was a “Triple A” title game,
Happy profanities were said, we could be destined for fame,
“Now, DEVELOPER! now, DESIGNER! now, MARKETER and WRITER!
On, ANALYST! on ADMIN! on, QA and TESTER!
To the top of the stage! to the top of the wall!
Now launch away! launch away! launch away all!”
