No entrar a Twitter hoy.

Sensato, prudente.

Imposible.

Emails siguen llegando.
Se acumulan como hojas.
Debería salirme de Twitter.

Los haikus son una de la formas de poesía que mas me gustan. La simplicidad y brevedad que los caracterizan, los hacen un reto tanto para leerse como para escribirse.

Y que mejor que esa mezcla de filosofía Zen y poesía para describir las dramáticas, contradictorias e inesperadas ocurrencias de estas veleidosas herramientas y juguetes llamadas PC. Les dejo varios de los mejores ejemplos de un concurso que la revista Salon llevó a cabo hace tiempo.

Disfruten y vean cuantos de ellos les son familiares.

Gracias al Gato Reinventado^TM por la idea para añadir esto. Saludos al felino blogeador.

Serious error

All shortcuts have disappeared.
Screen. Mind. Both are blank.

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 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.

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.

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.
