Ilostalgia or Disgust?
THE EPIC OF THE BED PAN
When I had my operation, .
I displayed a lot of guts; T
I could take it, smile and like it, .. ..
But the bed pan drove me nuts. .
When nature called, I'd call the nurse;
And when I called she ran
And soon I'd have my carcass . . j
Parked upon that goldam pan. Xt
'I
J,
1
I'd slide back on my shoulders
But the leverage wasn't there,
And instead of something doing,
I'd shoot a flock of air.
And when at last I'd get results,
I'd feel around my seat,
To see if I had missed the pan
And piled it on the sheet.
There was cold sweat on my forehead,
When I'd feel with cautious care,
And with sighs of satisfaction
Find not a thing was there.
But now a new contortion
Would leave me weak and pale; i,
I'd have to work and twist and squirm
To wipe my poor sore tail.
I'd raise my sitter, high mid-air
This closed the gapping span;
My shaky hand would slip, and then
I'd grab that goldam pan.
The muscles of my neck would bulge
" As I stood upon my head,
I'd make" a few wild passes
And fall weakly back in bed.
And when I'd ring the nurse came in
And carried off the pan;
I'd wonder why, oh such a job,
They didn't send a man.
Then finally, I'd settle down,
That movement was a treat;
But, wait a minute! What's so warm,
And wet upon the sheet.
With a gasp of apprehension,
I'd slowly raise my gown
And there beneath my sitter
Would be a blotch of brown.
And so, as operations go,
I'm a burly, big he man;
But gosh! It simply burns me up
When I miss that goldam pan!
