There once was a computer from DEC

Alas, with no Forth - how low tech!

A programmer from FIG

Thought: “What can I rig?”

Now that DEC’s DECked out up to spec.

By Paul Hardy

There once was a DEC PDP

That booted fig-FORTH 1.3

Then the years passed by

And the end seemed nigh

Now a sim leaves the PDP be.

By Paul Hardy

There once was a guy named Har-dy,

Who squandered time while doing laun-dry,

'Bout computers from DEC,

Being up to spec,

Without Forth, how can that be?
