Infinite Monkeys

The advertisement in a daily read
"Wanted computer savy infinite monkeys
perks: best bananas in the industry"
Thus putting togather infinite monkeys
sitting them all at computer keyboards
teaching them to type, the work began:
Works of all bards, and all philosophers
of the past and the infinite time to come
all the old and many new masterpieces galore.
Now the big problem that was encountered
finding monkey that produced the masterpieces,
so infinite monkeys were put on sorting task.
There were reports that Encyclopedia Britannica
all of the volumes were spotted in Esperanto
Entire works of Shakespeare in ancient Martian.
Amongst the infinite gems and gibberish
this poem was discovered by some monkeys
all it took was one monkey an hour to write.
According to the second Borel-Cantelli lemma, given enough time, a chimpanzee at random will almost certainly eventually type out a copy of one of Shakespeare's plays. So monkeys, go on, keep hitting the keyboards.
