Men's Room Matlack

My Response to 'Mushmouth Kostro'

Poem Artwork
-->-I Try To Be Nice, But He Makes It Very Difficult-


Music: All In The Family

My old brother has started a family feud again
It seems he would rather fight than have peace
But I always have a lot of ammunition around
In fact, I have hundreds of old photos like these

Whenever I would suggest that we two go for a swim
He would soon dash into the men’s room at the beach
I would find him in there, standing inside the commode
And yell at him that he was supposed to swim in the sea

And he would now always respond: “It’s a lot safer in here!”
“Don’t you know that there are big nasty sharks in the sea?”
“Besides that I would much rather swim in the men’s room,
Just in case, I get that sudden urge, to have to poop or pee!”

And eventually, I would grow extremely tired of arguing with him
I would leave him there in the men’s room, while I swam in the sea
During the ride home, he would always tell me that he enjoyed the day
Then say “The water was really hot today; can we go for some ice cream?”

Next time, I’ll share an old photo of him I call 'Meatball Matlack.'

©2014, His Brother Mushmouth Ed

Ma said, no matter what the provocation, that you would never reveal my penchant for toilet bowl diving...now that you have, Mush, you will fairly regret as you may have Ma's ear, but I got her memories, so the gauntlet has been thrown down...and I enjoyed every minute of it...and will keep doing so till you say uncle or in your case aunt...;-) -e-

Loved the poem!
Now how did he get in the bowl?
A Reverse flush???

A classic come back… That is perfectly positioned for number 1 and number 2 to be done simultaneously. But I wouldn't caught dead swimming in the aftermath. It looks like this plate is starting to get dirty, just the kind to keep the interest up to see where the shit flies next.

There's nothing like swimming,
but you can't be rushed,
and if you swim in a porcelain bowl,
be careful you don't get flushed.

I would much rather contend with Big Brother, rather than my "big" brother (I have 150 lb. on him - all table muscle, I might add....
