Emacs bug: describe-key and lambda too poetic

This reminds me of the similarly poetic output of git describe when no tags are available:
I love that, as a non-emacs user I can't really tell if M-x describe-feelings is a real thing or not.
It isn't, but there is a poetry mode for emacs[0] and a mode for managing Python's poetry (which is a tool for dependency management)[1]

I actually just checked and it isn’t, but it would not surprise me if it was real, given there are commands such as `M-x butterfly`, `M-x fortune` or `M-x doctor` in Emacs [1].

M-x psychoanalyze-pinhead is one of my favorites. (Doctor+yow, aka Eliza plus zippy the pinhead quotes)
The best part is a ways down -- I'd quote it here but that would just be karma farming. Look for "With patch applied".
> With patch applied, thy scratch prepared to itch which I bemoan,
> Help link replied, its ink ensnared, with "lambda, type Unknown."[1]
> Apostrophized: "Be tossed, repaired, my user-error thrown!"
> With paren pride, I then declared a test which I have shown.[2]
> Test now revised as thou compared. Composure hath no throne
> when teary-eyed, in fear I blared, "My closure! Type Unknown?"
(Karma is meaningless
you should have just said it
if you want poem_for_your_sprog
then go back to reddit)

Ah, but now you've lost the asterisks in the transfer to HN! This art has been <gasp> defaced! /s
Yes, maybe I should have just posted it, but I'd rather people click through and actually read the OP. There's something worth your time on the other side of that link!

Look where?
EDIT: Ah, in the OP.

Docstrings, errors too, are nice.
But haven't the impressive flair
Of poems to which Elisp is heir.
Elisper's life is paradise!
