The Toilet Not Taken

poem by: Jim Kilduff
Written on Mar 03, 2018

Two toilets converged in a murky room,
Frustrated I couldn't decide on both
And be a reveler , long I fumed
Stared em down, my dignity in doom
To where it no longer became a joke;

Then took the other just as a dare,
And having perhaps the same amount of shame
Because it was available and wanted wear;
And because I really didnt care
Souless toilets did equally maim

And both night equally lay
In a stench where you MUST turn back
Oh, I was cursed for drinking all day!
Now my dignity was on display
I doubted if I would ever get it back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh 
Somewhere ages and ages hence
Two toilets converged in a murky room
I took one different to the other guys
And thats made feck all difference.
