How To Kill a Printer

Throw it over the second floor
Or better yet bathe it
Since it never seem to.
Kicking doesn’t help
Or talking either
Everybody just thinks me crazy.

I’ve thought of starving it
No paper, No work
We’ll see who’s smiling now.
Oh wait for a sec,
Do printers eat Ink or paper?

This machine irks me
So before I kill it 
I wonder,
How much jail time 
Do I have to do
For killing one Stupid Printer?

Trouble is you can't argue with a machine but I know the feeling of wanting to kill it. Had to laugh (pardon) at the frustration in this one! :)
