A Printer With Artificial Intelligence

By Elton Camp
If must print right away
It must have heard me say
For itll try in every way
To produce endless delay
Preparation is taking place
On the screen I have to face
Cartridge alignment take a while
In its program, the printer must smile
Reload paper and press okay
Its treachery does well betray
It seems ready to click print
But Low on ink it will hint
However, I know its untrue
So tell it to carry through
Its ready to print that I am
Then it creates a paper jam
Finally the print slides out
I gave a dismayed shout
And resignedly say Oh, no
Seeing the ink really was low
I give the illegible page a toss
The printer has show its boss
