The Deviltry of Old NIC

[temperance14]

or a Laptop Rondelet**

My network card is not immortal!
Despite my prayers to techno gods
My network card is not immortal!
Barred from LJ's Perly portal

Unholy priest of IT prods
"It's ancient crap!" he sneers and nods,

"Your network card is not immortal!"

*****************************
**Rondelet is one of the shortest of the French refrain forms

And no, obviously I'm not totally barred from LJ, you picky twerps.

I need to try a Triolet. Or really send up prayers to the gods with a kyrielle, when we add the wifi adapter.

A real Rondelle, of my love for you

My network card has ceased to operate.
I wish that I could use the internet.
Though wishing seems a sad and soppy fate,
I find I cannot make myself relent.

And now I mourn; with whom shall I relate,
And argue with, on things I find cogent?
My network card has ceased to operate.
I wish that I could use the internet.

Do others, like myself, just sit and wait,
immobilized by loss of instrument
to surf the net? I swear, I nearly went
to bed; I'm bored, and now the hour is late.
My network card has ceased to operate.
