Lament to the death of Inchcock’s Bathroom

Soon it’ll be demolished and gone,

Converted to a shower, taking four days long,

No more can I soak, while bursting out a song,

Wallowing in carbolic or an hour long,

I hope when they do it, they don’t get it wrong!

78 years of age, pretty ugly, short, bald, pot-bellied, in ill health. Decaying physically and morally. Mechanical ticker valve, Duodenal Donald, Saccades-Sandra, Arthur Itis, Hernia Henry, Hard of Hearing Hank, Bad eyesight Boris, Reflux Roger, Peripheral Neuropathy, Nerve Neurotransmitters Not-working Wendy, Bladder Cancer Chris, Stuttering Stephany, Haemorrhoid Harold, Shaking Shaun, Dizzy Dennis, FND, ... there are others, but I've tired myself out, now! Hehehe! Oh, then I had a stroke! Now awaiting Cataract & Glaucoma operations. Diabetes 2, Leg-Ulcer-Ulrich, Cartilage Chloe & Carole and am flat-bound. Tsk! Failures, Accifauxpas and Whoopsiedangleplops are my Forte... Hehehe! I love making folk smile when I can. TTFNski!

Marissa Bergen – Burbank, Ca – This blog is a semi auto-biographical view of my life, beginning as a rocker chick from Brooklyn, moving on to playing in a punk band on New York's Lower East Side, to my current lot in life as a working mother of two, now living in Los Angeles. I love writing because you can be whoever you want to be when you write. Therefore, I would never want to pigeon-hole myself too much in my blog. However, I don't think I will ever deviate too much from what is innately in my blood, that being humor and sarcasm. Recently I have been turning more and more to poetry. I like poetry because it let's you say so much more with so much less, so much more about so little, and it also distances you from the subject matter, making you much less likely to offend someone, which I would probably otherwise do on a daily basis.

  Do they? What Arthur Itis will say when I have to stand to bathe and he misses his good soak I don’t know? Hehe!
  If I get Little Inchy bleeding and a dizzy spell at the same time it could be interesting. Hey-ho. TTFN Mon Ami. X

    Oh goodness, always painting such a pleasant picture for me, aren’t you? Yes, I didn’t think about old Arthur Itis. I’m sure he will miss his baths.

    Sorry petal. But having a stand-up wash at the kitchen sink brought back memories of the ankle-snapper days. Hehehe! X
