Small room with 12 bathrooms.

DEALS, DEALS, DEALS.

Envelopes fill the baskets.

Mirrors with lipstick kisses.

In the small room - elbows bump.

Into the office.

OCCUPIED - next bathroom.

Outside neighbors look.

Cesspool trucks arrive.

Dirt cover-up off lid.

Man preys lid open.

Next years news escapes.

CESSPOOL CLEAN and POLATICS AGAIN.

Like all other creatures with there natures.

Jesus saves and does the opposite, apparently. Good statement though. I liked where you put politics, right where it belongs, lol. Hmmm. Someone should have wipe their butt with Politics in the end, lol.

You took the words out of my mouth

Yes, it does seem inevitable doesn't it. A well done social commentary.

I'd appreciate any comments you might give on my new poem: Judge Knot.
