His wife bangs
on the bathroom door
about the supposed delay
but something very sinister
just sucked him
away.
She's not even aware
that he's no longer
sitting here.
The poor bugger
didn't have time
to show any fear.
He was reading
the TV Guide
in his comfort zone
where a husband can have peace
right here
on the throne.
From the depths of the sewer system
the shit
hit the fan
lurking as a dark enigma
in search
of this man.
It claimed his entire body
right above
both shins
because he who has
constipation
no longer wins.
She had given him
prune juice
to get in the groove
hoping the dam
would burst
and begin to move.
Now time was on the side
of the cesspool eyes
from the deep
which had targeted
its victim
with one last little peep.
Its arms were outstretched
and reaching
for the rear.
Just wait to see how fast
a human
can disappear.
The crime scene
is like a painting
by Rene Magritte
with only his severed feet
left behind
by the toilet seat.
