Poetry from Electronic Pork Shoulder Transmissions

Allow me to present for your reading pleasure a short piece of abstract poetry. I particularly like how the poet repeated the first line at the end.

Mine profile links, simply strategic?

Sill amber cox andy hosier.

Store went bought saved left, happy fiberbed, disklike pokey.

Had message about not quiting stepping up even when!

There is nothing more cute than kid.

Feathers regular down pads comforter!

Going into really didnt any, good made, laugh.

Movie whamright know but please dont try home.

Mine profile links, simply strategic?
Where did I find this, you may ask? Some small piece of poetry written in ten minutes by William Burroughs on a bad acid trip? Lost verses from Lewis Carroll's Jabberwocky? Mangled English-language instructions from a Chinese manufacturer of bed linens?

Nah. It was the text of a spam email urging me to buy some stock. It also included a link for me to click to download some free emoticons, which doubtless would have come with some nifty computer virus. I didn't click.
