"The Office Printer"



The office printer, it was time to say goodbye.
For the hours of refusing to print, you made me want to cry.
For hours, I had wished to bid farewell.
Your incompetence made me want to put you in a dungeon cell.
I reached my end and drew my bat…
And truly struck the life out of that.
A new printer I seek…
One that won’t make me reach my furious peek.
