Invisible Capital One interloper(s) acted brash
The mindset of a cyber thrill seeker
to plunder analogous videlicet digitally
to slash and burn leaving cookies
(a small text file
stored on a user's computer
by a web browser,
created by a website
to remember information,
such as login status,
shopping cart items,
or user preferences,
which could theoretically
include financial data)
instead of powder gray ash,
potential evidence of pyromaniac guilt
thus, I attempted to concoct a poem
to poetically lash out
at intrepid online crooks
these Invisible Capital One
interloper(s) acted brash
broke thru the byte size phalanx of guards
and deactivated heavily
monitored surveillance systems
possibly called into service
all those resolving this claim
initially filed by the one
and only innocent victim
(but certainly other tormented souls
discovered vis a vis vanished funds
to help track down rapscallions
employing dirty deeds done dirt cheap
even the writer of these words
queried involving the
who, when, where, et cetera details
whether virtual home turf of mine courtesy
those artificial intelligence usurpers
(now employing police and
Citizens Bank fraud department)
I hope the intelligent sleuths
when squaring off against
cunning criminal mind(s)
catch virtual online thief/thieves,
nevertheless both protagonists and antagonists
using tricks of the trade
masters of the computer terrain
maybe even questioning me,
who experienced victimization
both parties heavily steeped in the roles played,
whether game decrypting lawless code breakers
calling the shots from some remote location
writing and dispensing
than unleashing sinister lines
of computer language
to jump/kick start programs
giving hackers carte blanche leeway
to break on free to the other side
allowing, enabling and proving ingress
to safe crack sophisticated outright access
and an untraceable path
to garner supposed loot
analogous to take candy from a kid
just for the mere vicarious kicks
experienced schadenfreude
(pleasure derived by someone
from another person's misfortune -
namely) mine ecstasy
knowing at least one victim
made to suffer
under emotional and financial duress
or more likely to unleash
essentially the presence or absence
of an electric charge
to gain entry vis a vis accessing
figurative entry or exit ramp
within one network or node
characterizing hitting figurative pay dirt
where information superhighway
analogous to a free-way to get spoils
without paying any tolls,
but hopefully unaware
and get overly cocky
when they themselves
the so called masterminds get pulled over
courtesy an artificial intelligent bot
perhaps disguised as a grungy
supremely intelligent self taught punk rocker
yes – essentially a polymath
in a previous incarnation to help thwart
crème de la crème NOT getting caught
donning black hat, white hat
and/or gray hat hacker role
trumpeting victory for poor sucker(s)
at the receiving end
of being rendered dirt poor,
whose monies already
bankrolled into cryptocurrency
interestingly enough to pilfer electronically
sought after money -
in this case mine
for thee umpteenth time
(even if just a measly
few thousand dollars -
mere chump change
in the cold hard hands
of golden fingered smoking hot bandits)
courtesy deploying secret cache
(when necessary applying weapons
more apropos to the Wild West)
nevertheless, thee robber baron(s)
outsmarting technology despite
simulated state of the art models
utilized by either perpetrators
or strong arm of the law
to cover all possible scenarios
no matter cause of my utter distress
after checking accounts of mine
completely shorn cache of cash
seed money for a nest egg gone
in the blink of an eye,
thus maybe a few thousand dollars needed
courtesy a foo fighting dogmatic beast
to compensate yours truly
whose checking accounts decreased
to absolute zero
sense without sensibility
where the writer of these words got fleeced
analogous to a sheep
getting shorn unlike hartebeest
large, fawn-colored African antelope
(Alcelaphus buselaphus)
characterized by a long,
narrow face, slouched back,
and ringed, lyre-shaped horns.
Known for being fast and agile
(up to 70 km/h),
they live in herds in savannas.
The name comes from Dutch,
meaning "deer-beast".
related to the gnus to you
from Lake Wobegon, Minnesota.
