Interoperable

My love is an external hard drive.

During our last backup, he gave up. said I need more space,
And ran off with all my memories. 
I've learned there are creatures in this 
universe with 
fixed capacities to feel.
They do not respond to maintenance, they do not feature-update. They
cannot play nice with others in the 
sandbox. Dimensions set 
by their creator that they 
never sought to question. What is, what was, what will.
A pity.

My last backup, it said: "this overwhelms me"
"can you send me less information"
"this is too much information"
"I can't process at the required rate"
"I am not equipped"
- blue screen -
We're factory reset now, and I'm setting out into the 
world again with faded knowledge and greater scope. I'm looking for a 
storage solution that can accept
wide swaths of raw data from indiscriminate sources in any 
version of the OS - past, present, future self/ves. I can't tell you data 
type I can't tell you workflow I almost 
have a grasp on intended usage. Can you clean up these thoughts? Can you 
put them into boxes?
Can you map my tangents? Can you set this
aside for later learning? Can you find the patterns? Can you
determine cause? Can you model a future with
room for the past?

Can you backup?
