Posting a new page seemed like a very good idea

Until tidying it up caused the grinding of gears
As the clutch slipped, and the wheels wobbled
... Suddenly, the whole idea was hobbled ...

As the page stopped more than two thirds up
And the screen seized, caught by saver's cut
Making one realize multi-tasking's not all that
For there are limitations on how many can zap

... Along - quite merrily at a good snappy pace
Even with thirty-two meg ... there is just no place
To create a page without swapping space
Until Net servers tie US - in this race ....

- Tristram
