Pither

Can you be so in touch with the universe
That you feel each decaying atom disperse
Throughout the fabric of all that is—
Or maybe you just have to take a whiz?

I had to stop by to see to what "pither" was referring. I was right. Lol!
It did bring to mind days in childhood when my parents learned a new way to kill our hens for supper, and my college days when they wanted us to pith our own frogs for dissection. I had to get another person to do the job. I could not be a pither.

πŸ˜‚ this is my attempt at a portmanteau. I combined the words pithy and pisser. On a side note, I use Microsoft Word for writing and there's a feature to read back your document in the standard robot voice. Well they must have upgraded it recently because it read my poem with actual inflection in the voice and it cracked me up, soon we won't be able to tell the difference, now that's a pisser.
