Just A Pub Urinal

A beautiful toilet

Just A Pub Urinal

Often beauty is relative to need.

Four or five pints 

And the need is sudden and intense.

That long trough of stainless steel

Filled with mounds of gleaming ice

Is one of the nights most beautiful sights.

Very funny. Can u please send me a read request for that poem you wanted me to read I cannot find it

[DIVYA]

I never imagined, a pub urinal could evoke such delightful lines but indeed, I've been in road traveling situations where the need was intense with no loo in sight for miles, and it was sheer agony. That pub urinal must be indeed such a beautiful sight! I loved the poem.

[Michael Sun Bear]

Thanks. It was specifically written for a small gathering of local poets and got quite a guffaw when read aloud.

Ha! I just read your poem about frontal lobe deterioration, and it made me think about the relativity of beauty, so this is a great poem to have read next. Hilarious

[Michael Sun Bear]

Thanks, we must,after all, keep things in proportion,eh?

[emmajoygreen]

Laughing! Wanted to return the compliment you've just left me but, sadly the similarity between pub urinal and love and the like is absolutely impossible!

[Michael Sun Bear]

Thanks for reading. I read it out loud at a gathering of about a dozen poets and it got a great laugh. “Toilets” was the suggested theme for that meeting.

It made me laugh too because I was thinking of not reading such a subject but hey, am grown up!
