Computer Haikus
Your file is that big?
It might be very useful.
But now it is gone.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Chaos reigns within.
Reflect, repent, and reboot.
Order shall return.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Aborted effort:
Close all things that are open.
You ask way too much.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
First snow, then silence.
This thousand dollar screen dies
so beautifully.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
The Tao that is seen
is not the true Tao, until
you bring fresh toner.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
The Web site you seek
cannot be located but
endless more exist.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Stay the patient course.
Of little worth is your ire.
The network is down.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
A crash reduces
your expensive computer
to a simple stone.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Yesterday it worked.
Today it is not working.
Windows is like that.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
You step in the stream,
but the water has moved on.
This page is not here.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Out of memory.
We wish to hold the whole sky,
but we never will.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Serious error.
All shortcuts have disappeared.
Screen. Mind. Both are blank.
