WAITING - FOR URINATION

I'M WAITING

JUST WAITING

FOR URINATION

 

THE TIME IS RIGHT

THE URGE IS RIGHT

 

BUT THE TRAIN IS

AS IT WERE

HELD UP

OUTSIDE THE STATION

 

YOUNG MEN EITHER SIDE OF ME

CONTINUE ON THEIR MERRY WAY

 

WHILE THIS OLD FELLA

WAITS FOR THE OFF

MANAGING JUST A NERVOUS COUGH

 

IMAGINING TREES AND COWS

PORCELAIN EXTRUSIONS

FOSTERING OLD YOUTHFUL ILLUSIONS

◄ HEAR THE JAZZ

LONG DISTANCE EXPRESS ►

Thanks Stu. I can't forget those days of chasing dog ends away down the channel. Another world. Perhaps in a parallel universe they retain their original flavour while I await the men in white coats.

These lines - brief and plaintive - brought a smile.
If you wear a top coat, one of those ubiquitous plastic
drink bottles can be placed in a suitably covered position
standing leaning towards the door between carriages in an absolute emergency!
Not that I ever wish to try it, mind...but if it helps
when "needs must"...?
