Poem Composed On The Toilet

what great gifts may come
from but a brief sit down
ideas illuminating are not
bound in time and space

limited to places of import
or limited to auspicious occasions
ideas are conceived even in
stolen moments insignificant spaces

no this poem was got you not
composed on the needed toilet
process of attending to details
dots required mental facilities

a classical statute the thinker
an example of muddled thought
boxing through aged difficulties
toilet was red herring time out
