Imagine If Instead Of Cryptic Text Strings, Your Computer Produced Error Messages In Haiku!

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

A file that big?

It might be very useful.

But now it is gone.

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

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.

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

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.

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

Rather than a beep

Or a rude error message,

These words: "File not found."

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

Serious error.

All shortcuts have disappeared.

Screen. Mind. Both are blank.

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

The Web site you seek

Cannot be located but

Endless others exist.

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

Chaos reigns within.

Reflect, repent and reboot.

Order shall return.

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

Aborted effort:

Close all that you have.

You ask way too much.

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

First snow, then silence.

This thousand dollar screen dies

So beautifully.

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

With searching comes loss

And the presence of absence:

"My Novel" not found.

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

The Tao that is seen

Is not the true Tao, until

You bring fresh toner.

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

Windows NT crashed.

I am The Blue Screen of Death.

No one hears your screams.

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

A crash reduces

Your expensive computer

To a simple stone.

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

Error messages

Cannot completely convey.

We now know shared loss

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