A clever little poem made out of punctuation, for the digital age:

http://www.roundsing.org/music/waka-waka.html

<>!*''#
^"`$$-
&[]../
@=<>,,SYSTEM HALTED

Waka Waka Bang Splat
music: Melissa D. Binde / words: Anonymous, arr. Binde

*Waka waka bang splat tick tick hash
*Caret quote back tick dollar dollar dash
*Ampersand bracket bracket dot dot slash
*At equal waka waka comma comma crash

*part breaks

...

Also this version:

 <>!*''#
    ^"`$$-
    !*=@$_
    %*<>~#4
    &[]../
    |{,,SYSTEM HALTED

The poem can only be appreciated by reading it aloud, as such:

Waka waka bang splat tick tick hash,
Caret quote back-tick dollar dollar dash,
Bang splat equal at dollar under-score,
Percent splat waka waka tilde number four,
Ampersand bracket bracket dot dot slash,
Vertical-bar curly-bracket comma comma CRASH!
