Personally, I think it’s a great slogan. And I agree: well-written computer code is like a work of art. Good code creates something that runs beautifully and can even look beautiful too.

So yes, code is poetry; however, I find it kind of annoying to discover poetry in code, or more specifically, I find it kind of annoying when I find Daisy Bell lycrics hiding in my WordPress CSS:

.navigation {
	display: block;
	text-align: center;
	margin-top: 10px;
	margin-bottom: 60px;
	}
/* End Various Tags & Classes*/

/* "Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer do. I'm half crazy all for the love of you.
	It won't be a stylish marriage, I can't afford a carriage.
	But you'll look sweet upon the seat of a bicycle built for two." */

I do feel kind of annoyed, but the lightheartedness of it also almost makes me want to laugh. And that’s probably why it’s there.
