Cheap Toilet Seat Cover
Now I'm not the kind of guy
used to luxury or wealth
fancy "cribs" as they now
call them (ain't that ridiculous?)
the only luxury I've tasted
is on TV with Robin Bleach...
or in brief stays on vacation
where I liveed nicely for a bit
but these were all illusions
and life is really here
no champagne in my 'frig
I can hardly afford beer...
my trailer is a place,
I don't quite yet feel at ease with
got its good points and its bad
the skylight options,
put in kitchen and bathroom
they're really pretty cool
especially when it rains
the built in cd/radio with
4 speakers in the ceiling
a must for a musician
the kitchen okay too
But, the bathroom............
like it came from
a different factory....
$2 cheap plastic toilet
seat covers...
you dare not sit on
or even place
a small box of tissues
and a bathtub which even
the munchkins would
feel crowded in
in fact, no non-anorectic
human should even try
I know I didn't
appreciate 42 hours
butt-wedged between
the sides...
good only as a footbath...
and getting out of
the shower is a life
threatening risk
so slippery, with
nothing to grab hold to
I guess in time
I'll get used to it
maybe rig
ingenious contraptions
to help one
exit the tub, etc.
who knows...
people can get use to almost
anything.....
I mean... they get
married, don't they?
