Blessed sanctuary of all poos tidy bowl king is honored

Mad Women Love me a lot.
That means nothing have I got
To things view from Worth of What,
Not spotless The-With-A-Blot…
From Mad Women lovers’ smiles:
Those who could like me walk miles,
Naked Ones glad about it;
To marry one digging my pit!
Years of disdain for bathrooms
But streets sweep with caring brooms…
God I bless for Pubic Hairs
Ably screening off Prized Wares
Still some day saleable
For A Madness stoppable!
BBC I trust can see
Could afford to let this be;
With Proverbs busier than bee…
I’d forgive: Winter’s Hot Tea.”
If only you knew how upset I get,
going into bathrooms with just air machines.
I have not figured out how to wipe up water off the counter,
with just air machines.
I have not figured out how to dry my eyes,
with just air machines.
I have not figured out how to wipe a baby's butt,
with just air machines.
I have not figured out how to wipe food off my top,
with just air machines.
I have not figured out how to take invisible towels,
with just air machines.
Because sometimes we can't say,
what angers us from day to day.
I have not figured out how to get paper towels put back,
not just air machines.
I have not figured out how to get choice put back,
not just air machines.

If Only You Knew How Upset I Get
We can still love each other, to our dying day. We can maintain some of that magic when things were new. Didn’t mind elbows in the night, or bodily functions to name a few. Waking up and admiring the view. Seperate bathrooms permit waking up and servicing the appropriate parts. Don’t have to be exposed to the dreaded morning farts. Cleanliness is next to Godliness or so the saying goes, I guess it is true. But what man can clean or want to,as good as you? So what if there is twenty feet between my commode and you. If we want to get frisky, we can still enjoy the view.
No cement,
No bricks,
No magician's poles,
Bathrooms,
Became-
Washrooms!
