Two networked machines, one infected with a virus, slowly infects the other through the interface of classic romantic poetry.
A breakdown in the relationship was inevitable once the virus had seeped into the memory of one machine and then into the other through a singular network cable affecting the poetic text files. Communication between the two deteriorated, leading to irrational & at times odd behaviour. Each machine reacted with equal confusion and conflict. The interface text became an illegible poetic mutation of itself.

I think why I get so confused and feel disproportionately overwhelmed when a technological thing I use a lot has a problem is because they feel like auxiliary brains to me. If I can't control my laptop I have lost all control of everything? This is definitely a problem but I have no idea what to do with that knowledge.
