Computer haiku


 ------------------------

Your file was so big.
It might be very useful.
But now it is gone.

------------------------

The website you seek
Cannot be located, but
Countless more exist.

------------------------

Chaos reigns within.
Reflect, repent and reboot.
Order shall return.

 ------------------------

Aborted effort.
Close all that you have worked on.
You ask far too much.

------------------------

Windows NT crashed.
I am the Blue Screen of Death.
No-one hears your screams.

------------------------

Yesterday it worked.
Today it is not working.
Windows is like that.

------------------------

Stay the patient course.
Of little worth is your ire.
The network is down.

------------------------

A crash reduces
Your expensive computer
To a simple stone.

------------------------

Three things are certain:
Death, taxes and lost data.
Guess which has occurred.

------------------------

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.

------------------------

Having been erased,
The document you're seeking
Must now be retyped.

------------------------

I ate your Web page.
Forgive me; it was tasty
And tart on my tongue
