Toilet Paper

Toilet Paper-Shawnee

Two ply essential commodity
Quilted with designs I never see
Always too soon running empty.

I wipe noses red and snotty
Trying to keep my fingers on high ground
Bunching paper around the gooey

I wipe off spit up that I've found
Chunky white puddle on my floor
And throw away the mushy mound

I always keep towers of rolls in store
To never be caught high and not dry
Each shopping trip I buy more

Upon my throne the double ply
Is gold draped on silver rod
I grasp, pull, and watch it roll by.
