I got these haiku about computers...

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.

Program Aborting
Close all that you have worked on.
You ask far to 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.

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

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

A crash reduces
Your expensive computer
To a simple stone.

Out of memory.
We wish to hold the whole sky,
But we never will.

You step in the stream,
But the waster has moved on.
This page is not here.

Serious Error.
All shortcuts have disappeared.
Screen.Mind,Both are Blank.

I like the one about reducing the computer to a stone.

It's as if a sage with this mighty long beard was actually sitting there chanting this little piece to you.

"Ah my little children....listen to my wise words......your computer..."
