as he went to use a city librarys
urinal he heard someone come into the restroom behind him yank open a stall
door drop his drawer and squat noisily onto a toilet
it was quite the production
but apparently – as he urinated –
the production tripped over its big feet
the production commenced to grunt and groan and used blow
to prevent pushing which he learned in birthing classes
in the last century
he found himself inadvertently Kegel-ing
to the gruntsgroans
he figuredpossibly his reaction might be associated contemporary like yawning when someone else yawns he was usually considerate he wouldnt go so far as to say compassionate but his consideration chaffed became irritate couldnt he who squatted in the stall some
stalls over from the urinal he used have waited a minuteanahalf longer
before coming in obviously he wasnt shitting
anytime soon
as he washed his handslistening to
the titan battle he thought to say out loud For all your labours you better name it when youve finished
rather
he thought he thought it
he hadnt realised he had until he
heard his voice echo off the paleblue tiled walls he understood ceramic was
easier to clean than a surface that was baffled or absorbed sound
Oh well he thought then he thought and he thought it often it was a good thing he had been an athlete throughout school and
college he had become somewhat inured to locker
room sounds and smells sights
rather
true be known he would have preferred listening to Low
