Jack Ellison Poet Quatrain

A Peeing Machine

A peeing machine, a peeing machine
That's what I've now become
About every two hours like clockwork
It's off to the toity I run

While making a speech at a banquet
Right smack dab in the middle
That old biological urge rears its head
And off I go for a piddle

Considered installing a porta-pottie
In every room of my house
It sure would make a whole lot of sense
Especially when I get soused

It certainly becomes a hairy affair
When I can't undo my buckle
So I just enjoy the cozy warm feeling
Stand and piddle and chuckle

A peeing machine, a peeing machine
That's what I've now become!

Russell Sivey January 13, 2013 at 4:11 PM I'm starting to get to that point when I've got to go more often my friend! Is there any remedy to the situation or must we suffer the frequent trips to the bathroom?! As for your hilarious write, I just loved reading this funny adventure here Jack! What a fantastic piece, Great Work!! Jack Ellison January 13, 2013 at 4:30 PM Sorry to tell you, my friend, it's only going to get worse! There's no hope for you now! LOL Thanks again Russell!

Toquyen Harrell January 13, 2013 at 7:17 AM Haha, too funny, dear Jack! I heard a lot of people have that problem but I didn't quite believe it. I guess not. I did not know it's that severe -every two hours? It's crazy! Installing a bathroom in every room wouldn't hurt. I was just wondering "does every senior have that problem?". Have a great Sunday :) Jack Ellison January 13, 2013 at 8:17 AM Got a chuckle out of Robert's comment! LOL "Every two hours"? Sometimes less! See what you've got ahead of you! LOL Reggae Magnet January 13, 2013 at 7:33 AM I gues we men have an advantage to reach the deposit point since it has a longer way to travel.lol
