I heard some one say
the other day
there was a news report
about a man who shot
and killed a computer.
and the police were
trying to apply
a charge of murder
to the poor guy.
I jumped up with glee
and shouted I agree!
It's bad enough getting a 404 -
that's worth a kick or more!
But anyone getting a 500
should not only be excused
and given an extra point or two
to calm his shattered nerves.
It's all very well
to say it's a trifle
but I'd hate anyone to stifle
MY creative urge.
