Bladder control

By Stephanie Sideways

Oh what an annoyance
It happens to be
When my bladder, at night
Wakes me up for a wee

I'm often too sleepy
And stubborn I get
So I drift back to sleep
As I'm sure I won't wet

The nerves from my bladder
I try to block out
As to nod off again
Is what I am about

You then try to trick me
By hijack of dreams
But I've learn not to cave
In your dreamed up latrines

Some how I control you
As I'd rather stay warm
You had your short freedom
When I was first born

Back then, you took charge
You let loose when you liked
But by about two
I could seal you up tight

I batten the hatches
And legs I will cross
You got emptied at bed time
So I'll show you who's boss!

And then come the morn
With call of the alarm
You'll give a sharp prod
With your quick nervous arm

I"ll jump out of bed
As I won't get to choose
The option of pressing
the Button for snooze

I'll run for the loo
What relief it will be
To empty my bladder
(But when it suits me! )

    A much neglected subject and you have treated it with medical clarity and age-appropriate humor. Funny where our inspiration comes from, cheers!
