There it was ... a new page ... all perfect in previews

But - after posting ... it quickly became bad news
For all of the perfectly symmetrical lines and pics
Went to pot, the moment the upload was clicked

And all of the patient lining up of GIFs, words, and spaces
Suddenly became a mess of screen-shots with just traces
Of all of the balancing painstakingly utilized to the "T"
Which all looked so very good when previewed with glee

And then ... that day's work all became totally unstuck ...
When the posting process ran the entire thing amuck ...
But that's okay ... I guess ... because it's only lost time
All it will take is - MORE - to make everything just fine!!!
