NaPoWriMo Day 18 - If Life Were a Computer Program

If Life Were a Computer Program

And I were the programmer, how different would it be
To have complete control, yes, but also responsibility?
There would be plenty of planning, designing every step
but also bugs a plenty and eternal risk of crashing.
Would there be time for testing? Or would a fatal error,
once compiled, be the end, if life were a computer program?
Could earlier subroutines be rewrote to match the tech?
Or would a novice hack be forever more saved on the hard
drive of the world? Would the rules of Conway or Asimov
reign supreme, or new ones created, if life were a program?
