Full Flow

The plumbing here is atrocious With clattering so ferocious It spits and splats, like angry cats And can also; be quite precocious Just a tiddle, as with its handle i fiddle Gazing into its innards, only a dribble! I peer so intent, on my knees in a dent! As concrete makes; pain so complete. Wow, I lurch without perch and numb feet In I draw breath, then rattle smash bash A torrent’s comes flash' a watery lash! In sodden clothes, I must beat a retreat. ©Joe Maverick 20-11-2022
