Defection

2085

What precedes any processing
by Ted’s digestive/nervous system?
Ted trusting the porcelain, er, process.
The defecation signal is understood by Ted
as the occasion ordering Ted
an orderly removal of troops, er, poops.
Sh, an exclamation to enjoin noiselessness —
(Plop!) — by a steamy it
only seemingly not teeming with life.
Flush.
If the defection signal is defective,
it is Ted’s tooth-er-toilet brush that orders
an orderly falling away from adherence.
