Code is poetry when written as such,

Words in stead of numbers add a nice touch

Those who treat it as craft and an art

May find that named colors are a good start.

So whether your colors be blue

Or red or lightsalmon or yew

Remember that if life is rough

Just add in a little more peachpuff!

It still should be doubly stressed,

that you could use something like LESS,

to substitute code arbitrarily,

for the readable name that's there really.

I don't believe in letting

Someone else's code munge my code

Decreasing its readability for others

And possibly introducing unforeseeen issues

Only to save a few bytes here and there
