**** Retention
I think it’s time I stopped paying attention To those who suffer from **** retention, Who are stuck in a rut of raw vengeance Penning verses out of jealous vehemence, And lashing out with tirades of cattiness Written with their characteristic nastiness, Seems they cannot abide my liberal stances They’d rather regress than make advances, They tout protecting their individual liberty No concern for...

Pee-Pee Retention
When I was younger and I thought of old age Thought we all became senile at this elderly stage It appears I was wrong, I can still go potty And able to dress this tired old body Try as I might, I don't see very well And my wobbly old legs are as shaky as hell Sometimes my words come out...
