Use the following Binary to text translator to find the meaning of the binary code in this poem.
Each line has eight characters right them down in the order you find them in the line, for example the first line would be 01101100. Go to:
https://www.rapidtables.com/convert/number/binary-to-ascii.html
and enter the numbers from each line for an entire stanza, leaving a space between each line (each eight characters) then hit the convert button. The binary in each stanza creates one word. The binary in the last stanza can be copy and pasted in the translator to get the final line of the poem. Do the same with the binary in the title to get the actual title of the poem.
