Toilet ode
White and shiny Porcelain
Ceramic water bowl
To flush away the fetid waste
Of food that once was whole
A handle hangs upon the side
The shiny pale pot
To sprinkle water down
On things that smell like rot
A tiny wooden outhouse
Home to a latrine
Somewhere that issues rest
Somewhere where you can pee
Drop off a hefty burden
And things that ail you most
A place we all return to
A place that’s in our home.
