The Men's Room

Don't smile 
Don't frown 
Don't turn around 
Don't make eye contact  

Don't wink 
Don't blink 
Don't even think 
About where you are at 

Don't say hey 
Don't wave 
Don't small talk make 
Stare straight at the wall 

Don't clear your throat 
Call someone bro
Or make a joke 
Of okay now please cough 

You're a man 
Wash your hands 
Though that's not in the plan
Dry them on your pants 

Walk to the door 
As you ignore 
All else but the floor 
Don't even think of looking back

Too funny! One time I was with my sis in the airport. She saw me come out of the restroom and thought she knew what direction I came from. Well needless to say, she saw a lot of standup guys...lol Didn't you come from that direction? She says and I was like noooooo.... And we laughed!
