Oh mirror damp on toilet wall
Who is the one in the next stall?
I need to retreat from this vapor
and some fool stole my toilet paper...

Oh mirror wet from splashing suds
reminding of forty day’s floods
Where is the jacket to float away?
Mirror, oh mirror, just please say..

Oh mirror, friend and shining foe
tell me right now, I wanta know.
Is this small bump right here a zit?
Come now mirror, I gotta git.

Listen mirror, once on the wall
of that stinking paperless stall.
Ya gotta cut through all this chase.
Was that a new zit on my face?

The music rocks, the time is nigh
for those fine babes to swoon and sigh.
And if you don’t cut through this crap
the girls will see the zit and zap!

Mirror, mirror on the wet floor
I gotta go Dude, time to score.
The babes are waitin’, zit is hid
Mirror, old friend...one more favor...
change the paper....put down the lid.

Sometimes...I admit I just don't know what to say...speechless!
An air of youth, with just the right amount of sparty pants! TD

LMAO...I can't stop laughing. This is soo cool.  What made you write a poem about toliets, zits and all that jazz.  It's a classic.

I asked God how much he loved me...
He said this much...
And streched out his arms and Died.

Barry,

I have a whole new appreciation of you!  Bathroom humor...we never outgrow it do we?  I try to incorporate in my verses when I can...by the way did you read, "Emotional Constipation"...a little bathroom humor verse of my own.

I laughed the whole way through, Barry!

Sorry, about the zit problem...a little Oxy5, might help you.
