Open a can of worms I was wondering What it is, about this thing It opens and closes using a lightly swing Thinking, it is actually a simple thing! Controversial perhaps, maybe so A debate for decades, so? Some say it should be down Otherwise, they will frown Some say it should be elevated Therefore, no hassles are created However we do discuss The matter is never settled without a fuss It’s either up or either down No winner no loser wears here a crown Mathematical, a solution seems so clear Just estimate the time for “up” by the amount of beer Estimate the time for tea At which point it should lye below the knee A clear result this would give Nevertheless, this would still all be “Relative” I heard that in the middle of the night One party, that does not turn on the light And this party is getting quite the a shock As intense coldness sets in, ad hoc Embarrassing for the other party, yes it is If it is down and in the dark, it was a miss No end is then to hear Only “I clean it up my dear” By now I’m sure one understands That this controversial will never ends Would there only be sensor that would show Where the lid should be, you know One can only asked to be forgiven We are forgetful when it comes to living Others can be happy when, She does have a toilette-trained man Leaving this can of worms open and free A phrase in reply, is all I asked of thee The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools. |

Dear Helmut, Keep it down. I have sat without looking, and it wakes you right up. Not pleasant, really. Nan |

Thanks you 2 I will try lol Just thought I raise the question and obviously someone (if not hundreds) have done so before me. The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools. |
