(A reflection on Verse Five)
New operating system desperately needed
Current program only runs when praised
Avoids all responsibility
Frequent crashes frustrate owner and other users
Insecurity, impatience and resentment
Causing repeated overloads
Stuck in endless feedback loop
Denying, justifying, blaming, denying…
Patches not available. Rebooting didn’t help.
System slowed to a crawl. Wasting precious human life.
Action: delete old program and install
Windows Ultimate View.
Exec command: Give all profit. Accept all loss.
(For tech support, refer to Verse 7)
Security alert! New system hacked!
Compassion worm is rapidly deleting ego.
“Is that so?†Hal asks, unperturbed.
