I HAVE A SHY BLADDER……..6.8.2011

 

I have a shy bladder,

and an angry liver.

                            I can’t pee in public,

                            and I’m mad as hell inside.

 

I have a broken heart,

and a leaky gut.

                       I am devastated by love

                       and pollute my own body.

 

I have a spotty face,

and am feeling fat.

                           I am totally enraged

                           and am fed up.

 

I have a body

that tells the truth.

Author's Note

this poem was sparked by a friend who told me she had a shy bladder. i asked her what she meant and she told me she couldnt pee in public places or if anyone was watching her. i started the poem with the line and the rest evolved...as i work in the field of healing and metaphysics i had a ready source of info on the mind/body connection..and a little personal experience thrown in too

I don't normally have a problem using public bathrooms. But when I was on probation, I had to take drug tests at the courthouse, and there would be a guy staring at me (LITERALLY staring at my junk) while I pissed in a cup. It was hellish, because I would always drink a s**t-load of water beforehand (to dilute my urine). So I would just have to stand there, with a full-to-bursting bladder, and will myself to piss while being stared at by another man. I'm so glad those days are over.

OMG I have the same feeling sometimes. I hate public restrooms, but sometimes its nescessary to do it there. Nice poem. :D LOL

I've never seen anything like this. Quite interesting and entertaining. Actually, I'm probably similarly afflicted.
