Something's off or been misplaced
things no longer
fit.
Somehow something's gone of course
and left me with the feeling
of misguided searching
without purpose.
These thoughts computed then defined
leave something
wanting...
Lines cross a time or two and then
leave subtle clues
Each path to each person
each person to
a path...
Two objects can not exist in the
same place at the
same time.
Find the problem,
sort the mess
A tangle in the webbing
a problem in the code?
Something's off or been misplaced
things aren't where they were
before.
Now...
Reflect, Repent, and Reboot
Order should return.

Okay, so I'm a computer geek - but tell me this hasn't happened to you, and I'll be surprised. Errors are common, admit it!

Oh boy, can I sure relate to computer problems. Am having heaps of trouble at the moment on this site. Having to keep putting in username and password. Have done the deleting cookies/temp files and stuff...all to no avail
Well done with this entry. I wish you luck

Thanks for the entry, yes it happens a lot... of course I don't have a tendency to bugfix so after swearing a bit I go straight for Ctrl-Alt-Delete and damn the consequences.
That being said I liked this, it was a little 'off the planet' and stayed away from transmitting outright anger and irritation, keeping with just confusion and almost a philosophic take on the situation, but I did feel that at times it felt a little 'choppy', sorry can't explain it better, like some ideas were broken up.
Still very well written, thank you again and good luck in the contest.
