Challenge of the Week CLXXIV
Toilet Paper. A boring commodity, or a precious resource? Let's see what you can do with such a mundane prompt. Fiction or non-fiction, poetry or Prose.
I, Toilet Paper
I, toilet paper.
Trees bend and are slain for me, for I am almighty.
Excrement is conquered with my touch, for I am heroic.
Queues expand and swell - 6 feet maintained, of course - for my treasures are desired.
Every square perfectly folds into a stack in the hand, for I am flawless in design.
Dripping noses are soothed, for I am soft and absorbant in my 3-ply perfection.
Humans - save those with bidets - need me, for I am boundless in my utility.
Stacks of me are hoarded into washroom closet shrines, for I, toilet paper, am precious.
I am toilet paper, God Of The Afterlife For All Human Excretions.
