A Token
A TOKEN
The word kept ringing
Water! Water!! Water!!!
It flows ones in a while
Patients hustle for water
They smell like prisoners
I thought water is free!
It's now a cost gift of mankind
Make a Nurse smile
With a little token
And win the award
The bucket of water award
A special bathroom award
A special toilet award
But for those without a token
Visit that thick bush
To answer the call of nature
Patients stake their lives to ease themselves
Wish to use the rest room ?
You need two buckets of water then
One for your self
One to partially clear the arena
You cannot clear it all
safe it for drinking
use the natural toilet.
