Pearls of Poetry

[dreamage]

If light were dark and dark were light
The moon a black hole in the blaze of night
A raven's wing as bright as tin
Then you, my love, would be darker than sin.
becomes...
if ((light eq dark) && (dark eq light)
    && ($blaze_of_night{moon} == black_hole)
    && ($ravens_wing{bright} == $tin{bright})) {
  my $love = $you = $sin{darkness} + 1;
};
You

I have a slight quibble.

I think, to be completely accurate ($ravens_wing{bright} == $tin{bright}) should be ($ravens_wing{bright} >= $tin{bright}).
