10 Little Gigabytes
10 little gigabytes, waiting online,
one caught a virus, then there were nine.
9 little gigabytes, holding just the date,
someone jabbed a write-protect, then there were eight.
8 little gigabytes, should have been eleven,
then they cut the budget, now there are seven.
7 little gigabytes, involved in mathematics,
stored on an even larger prime, now there are six.
6 little gigabytes, working like a hive,
one died of overworking, now there are five.
5 little gigabytes, trying to add more,
plugged in the wrong lead, now there are four.
4 little gigabytes, failing frequently,
one used for spare parts, now there are three.
3 little gigabytes, have much to do,
service man's holiday, now there are two.
2 little gigabytes, badly overrun,
took the work elsewhere, leaving just one.
1 little gigabyte, systems' far too small,
shut the whole thing down, now there's none at all
