You know when you just gotta go, but there’s a movie or work assignment or something else you’re so fixed on that it’s hard to break away … even though you probably should? That was the inspiration for this Typewriter Rodeo poem.
Bathroom Break
Oh I had no idea
It would be so long!
I totally planned
All this wrong!
When the movie started
I was feeling just fine
But then I had water
And a glass of wine
Now that urge is calling
What am I to do?
I don’t want to get up
And block everyone’s view
Or miss the next scene
We’re almost there!
But I am literally squirming
In my not-comfy chair
Oh it’s nearly unbearable
I’ve got to go!
Why didn’t I sit
At the end of the row?
