Simple is better

I made a nice simple demo
no un programa supremo
I should have stopped there
My brain said “beware!”
But my ego did not get the memo

I kept gilding my demo with features
Like colors and various creatures
It became quite enhanced
And very advanced
I was swinging way out for the bleachers

But then my poor demo stopped working
‘Cause somewhere a bug was now lurking
It was very disarming
And not all that charming
Frankly, I found it quite irking

Losing features is not so much fun
But at least now I’ve got it to run
When faced with reality
I chose functionality
‘Cause simple is better than none
