Please Delete
(a new year sonnet)
dear deity, i want to format: myself,
and reinstall a more stable and secure OS,
one that might not be compatible right off the shelf,
but with a bit of work, it will save me a load of BS.
really, i don’t mind if you click select-all and press delete,
most of those files are corrupt, the rest are wearing thin,
and anything resembling unique remains vastly incomplete,
so do me a large favor: don’t forget to empty the recycle bin.
and with regards to an OS, anything different will suffice,
anything different must run better than this,
so fare thee well blue screen of death, goodbye error: device,
say hello to anything with a better guarantee than ‘hit or miss’.
then: freshly formatted and reinstalled, i will compute to win,
until a few years pass, and i will wish to be formatted again.
