IN THE BATHROOM

 

Lotions, potions, rubs

And scrubs fill window ledges

And edges of tubs.

 

Don’t rush the brush, bro

Two minutes innit?  Steady

Pace, and taste the paste.

 

Blue Bic shaving stick,

Too quick, slight nick, tissue trick:

Speck dabbed and nick scabbed.

 

Behold on high the

Bathroom cabinet, filled with

Pills for ills we get.

 

Mirror on the wall

Please show: My father thirty

Years ago…..…Spooky!

 

Stella’s fella smells well

Power showers, body gel…

Girls!  Control yourselves!

 

Bathroom scales tell tales

Of exercise and diet.

With some disquiet.
