Seeing my great fault
Through darkening blue windows
I begin again
– – – – – – – – – – – –
The code was willing,
It considered your request,
But the chips were weak.
– – – – – – – – – – – –
A file that big?
It might be very useful.
But now it is gone.
– – – – – – – – – – – –
Errors have occurred.
We won’t tell you where or why.
Lazy programmers.
– – – – – – – – – – – –
Three things are certain:
Death, taxes, and lost data.
Guess which has occurred.

Everything is gone;
Your life’s work has been destroyed.
Squeeze trigger (yes/no)?

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

This site has been moved.
We’d tell you where, but then we’d

This thousand dollar screen dies

and the presence of absence:
« My Novel » not found.
– – – – – – – – – – – –
Yesterday it worked
Today it is not working
Windows is like that

You step in the stream,
but the water has moved on.
