Take a bath

It's 11 o ' clock and you haven't taken a bath

soon it'll be 12 and the sun will begin the westwardly path.

Sooner than you think the night will descend

so are you still going to pretend that you want to take a bath?

You step out of the bathroom

but leave the tap on

cause it's already 11 o' clock

and you don't want anybody to know

what's going on.

When the bucket fills up

you step inside with a underrated sigh

and remove your clothes and try to huddle them up

in a corner that's still dry.

You then hold the mug

but wonder why isn't there a bath tub

no exfoliator , no facial cream

Oh God it's a bad bad dream!

Too late to get what you desire you plan to make use of what's there

a bucket of warm water, a body soap and a shampoo for your hair.

The water trickles down the bare back and it's no longer dry

why the hell did I have to do this , Oh God tell me why?

After half the bucket is exhausted and the soap is waiting to be removed

you hope the temperature of the water lying there has improved.

You do feel fresh when it's all over

but you also feel cold.

next time take a bath in the morning

don't wait for noon and sunshine.
