I am looking at it from the point of view of a harried user, which I am, and I believe that I am much more like the typical non-technical harried user than I am like the people who smoothly operate everything.

Never trust a user
For they hurt the ones you love
They will seek you out as easy pray to get what they want
Never trust a user
They will take your heart and throw it away
They play you like you’re a toy
Then tell you it’s your fault
That things went bad between you two
Never trust a user
For they hurt the ones you love

Pain is a plenty harried thing
Pain is a plenty harried thing,
It too is in plentiful pain.
Pain too prays for reprieve from the Lord,
It too wishes for a merciful end;
Pain has pained itself with the painful realization,
That it is the root of the cause of the source of all pain;
That is why pain is a plenty harried thing,
For it too is in plentiful pain.
Pain is a plenty harried thing,
It too hopes that the morrow starts at leisure
And that maybe it could rise (one day) from within itself
And become its prodigal brother: Pleasure.
We blame pain, we hate pain but we all go seeking it,
Pain doesn’t stalk us, we stalk pain;
If it wasn’t for us, Pain would yet be an unknown hermit,
For it too is in plentiful pain.
Pain is a plenty harried thing,
It too gazes into the stars and watches the days go by without reform;
Pain grieves for the pain it feels deep inside,
Pain too struggles against exploit and harm.
Pain is the seedling of the plant of the tree,
Of Life, which is nothing without this pain;
And I do not crave Pain and it does not crave me,
For it too is in plentiful pain.

Axel
Your love is according to my likeness and,
Your muse is so sweet to me like the honeycomb;
But, a name is well pronounced by the user.
You are mine on this love like the river of blues,
For your love is all about this muse that we share;
And i will care for you always my sweet one.
Smoothly ans efficiently are your moves,
Diligently and responsibly are your works,
And to operate properly on this love like the honeycomb;
For you are all that maintains this love.
Axel, you are the president of my love;
And the difference is clear all over me.

Program
I live in a sea of computers,
Often I slay the programmers,
Offering them a slice of cake
Before I do.
I had slain my option, I had.
I have been very odd, but I’m not
Your coding, and I am very awkward
When it comes to managing
In a triply devastating idiosyncrasy.
Binary is the method of talk,
I examine his word with mine,
My robotics are advanced, but artificially sound.
Who is he? He is a user, a very exceptional user.

No...I Am Not That User Friendly
IF,
I am annoyed...
By anyone enjoying the implementation of it,
I will not express my agitation 'randomly'.
No barking do I do at strangers...
From a mind splitting fit like this.
No...
I am direct and specific.
I do not walk around,
Allowing others to leave me with a headache.
To pick my brain and leave me strained.
No...
I am not that user friendly.
Nor will I adopt or adapt to causes,
That usurp my beliefs or peace of mind I keep.
No...
I am not that user friendly.
Nothing I've earned is marketed...
For that kind of cheap sale.

Ode To The Fanny Queens
It takes a super butt;
To prove the strength,
Of a frail seat of power
and of deposit of the user,
of same seat of power,
From the butt and of a squeekey
Butt; the user of the seat
of power
Who can laugh at ones self,
is the winner over all,
of the glorious seat of power.
heres "to you from"

User-friendly
Do we inhabit some micro-space
And interface through wires.
Dance on a printed circuit board
Throw the software to the fires.
My memorys slim --- so volatile
But Im learning.
Plug yourself in. stay for awhile.
Un-discerning.
And on dusty terminals
Finger me lightly do.
And qwerty is the name of love
Printed on the v.d.u.
Cut yourself free. were all alone
Communicating.
Dont bother me with arithmetic ---
Im waiting.
User-friendly.
Thats what I am to you.
I have to break out of here.
Trapped in my hardware cell.
And come to you as you sleep tonight,
Take you back into my hell.
Binary joys and digital sighs
So appealing.
Im one of the boys and its only
Your mind that Im stealing.
User-friendly.
Thats all I am to you.

We Have A Technical
We have a random on the westside
Personality malfunction
He says I cant give you anything at all
Just a room with a bad view of you
He sent a letter to a downstat
Saying sorry that I missed you
But I cant think of anything to do
Hes addicted to the time track
We have a technical
We have a technical
Hes in a hotel where they all go
Saying boy, Ive lost my memory
Its so surprising
Just how quickly things can end
Like a hero on a platform of friends
This table is so crowded
With people that I dont know
And I never really turn
My thoughts on you
So the image breaks down again
We have a technical
We have a technical
I suppose its very shady
At least until the lights go out
Advertising posters on the wall
And the young boys singing softly
Do they ever come back
Or is it always at the wrong time
I could crawl around the floor
Just like Im real
And move a hand in front of my eyes
We have a technical
We have a technical

I was aiming for the cooks that I've talked to by teaching an online course and by traveling, listening to people who are really busy and harried but want to be cooking.

People who work on the user interface side need to have empathy as a key characteristic. But if you are writing device drivers you don't really need to understand humans so well.

Heart User
She wears her hair real wild
Her nails are perfectly filed
Her lips painted deep jungle red
Her best colour is black
And the clothes on her back
Show shes a woman with style
She wears satin and lace with impeccable taste
Shell tell you it runs in her blood
In a cloud of perfume she walks into the room
And it comes to a stop when she does
Shes a heart user
No time for losers
Shell use you up and throw your love away
Heart user
A barracuda
Shell use you just dont get in her way
Oozing with charm got a girl on each arm
His eyes match his all over tan
And as he straightens his tie
Some beauty catches his eye
Brings out the best in the man
And her fresh young face makes his cold heart race
Shes wearing that deadly perfume
You must admire the skill as he comes in for the kill
Its time to attack make his move
Hes a heart user
No time for losers
Hell use you up and throw your love away
Heart user
A barracuda
Hell use you just dont get in his way
Where you been all my life
This is love at first sight
Could swear weve met someone before
She throws back her head
And she shamelessly says
You got real good taste tell me more
Then the lady in black thinks shes setting her trap
And he thinks shes playing his game
But anybody can tell theyre just into themselves
Theyre two of a kind theyre the same
Theyre just heart users
No time for losers
Theyll use you up and throw your love away
Heart users
Theyre barracuda
Theyll use you just dont get in their way...
