Toilet Problems

A funny depiction . . .

~ Toilet Problems ~

 

So I stood,

Changing,

Minding myself,

Happily,

Until, behind me gurgled,

Another lively,

Item.

 

It sounded like it,

Wanted to blow,

Its own nose,

As I was,

Carefully minding,

My own business-

I hadn’t e’en,

Sat upon it!

 

It got into my,

Face and,

Made that sad-

Noise-

The water went down-

Again!

 

I tried to hurry,

As outside my stall,

I heard people begin,

Muttering.

 

A kind woman,

Knocked and asked,

After my well-being,

And I squeaked out,

“No worries!”

 

But,

To defy my words,

The toilet blew,

Again,

I moaned.

 

“Are you sure you’re alright?”

 

My face burned.

 

“Fine,” I moaned,

“perfectly fine.”

 

I walked out at last,

With my head held high,

As the toilet-

Burped out,

One last,

Good-bye.

 

I didn’t say good-bye,

And I ignored the crowd,

Truly dismayed.

Toilet must love you. Give it a kiss ! :D

Seriously, this was one weird poem. I write about theology and science fiction and magic and stuff so this was quite a bit different ...

BTW, avoid a bidet, those things can squirt you in the eye. :)

Actually, you did choose quite an odd one . . . for me, as a writer. This is not a reflection of the majority of my writings, which are usually of a deep romantic, and dark nature. I am a lover of the fantasy realms and the oblique, the hard to see, and everything enigmatic. I would love to read some of your poems about magic. Thanks for stopping in!

I like looking for the odd and silly and crazy stuff myself. I - don't know if I've written too many poems about magic, but I have written about magical things.

I'm new to Writer's Cafe so I'm definitely looking all around everywheres. ^.^

Well then, I shall send you a friend request, so to help you get started ;) I'm sure there is an ample archive of crazy and weird, bizarre poetry, so look in that category!- Really, if you type in 'crazy' or 'silly' in a tagline or search, I'm sure you'll find many pieces. Best of luck in that search!

Actually I search for a buncha other stuff but I'm not telling what ! :p

Oh dear. Shall I guess? Perhaps not, considering the particular nature of this one . . . but let me know if you find anything you feel is worthwhile ;)
