The others went home. As year followed year.

Deserted, alone. «Is that guy still here?»

Night passed into morning. He died at the console
The room was cluttered Of hunger and thirst
With core dumps, source listings. Next day he was buried

Logic, deduction. Accepted his fate.
«I've got it!» he cried, Said «He's not really gone,
»Just change one instruction." He's just working late."
