Napkins

Need paper day and night,
nervous if out of sight,
normally you stock up,
not today out of luck,
nature makes frantic call,
no time to sit and bawl,
napkins is next of kin.

Shalom Che! "Butt-paper" is essential the way our lives are lived today. Yet ... most of humanity still uses water - the cleanest way - to wash their bottoms. We approximate this with special toilets that have a special name in French
