My Plethora Burns When I Pee
This poem is inspired by John Savo, the Authoring Auctioneer,
who suggests most of our crap is… well, crap.
Plus I have pneumonia, so I’m feverish and taking antibiotics.
Funds for the Strip Club? (The Authoring Auctioneer)
It might be that some day I shall be drowned by the sea, or die of pneumonia from sleeping out at night, or be robbed and strangled by strangers. These things happen. Even so, I shall be ahead because of trusting the beach, the night and strangers.
Quotation from Janet Wood Reno (Janet Reno’s mother)
Maria: You should get out of these clothes immediately. You’ll catch your death of pneumonia, you will.
Inspector Clouseau: Yes, yes, I probably will. But it’s all part of life’s rich pageantry.
Quotation from Blake Edwards, A Shot in the Dark

Seraphine, I thank you for the tribute. I am honored that I was able to inspire you, as I feel you are one of the gems in the blogging world.
Get well soon.

What’s wrong with you - you are not supposed to get sick in summer! Those antibiotics, they are getting to your head.
Plethora!!!!
I had to look up this word, I admit it. Now I assume that it is mostly a state of being, not so much a thing by itself. Overfullness; especially excessive fullness of the blood vessels; repletion; that kind of state of overabundance… How come that thing hurts when you pee, I thought it was not a thing?
In any case, I feel bad that you feel bad, whatever that “thing” it is.
Now hurry up and get better.
(thanks again for the “corn” story, you must have been in delirium and drugged up already when you wrote this. But it turned out brilliant, I love it!)
Zees last blog post..Ok, I will have to clean up my act and talk to you later, while the corn grows even higher

I like to trust the beach, the night and strangers too, although people don’t always understand why.
I hope you get better soon. Sending good thoughts.

I’m thinking that the antibiotic for the pneumonia should also help your burning plethora, although I often find antibiotics cause some uncomfortable side effects…
I hope you feel better. And I hope you can cut yourself down from whatever you are hanging from — unless you are up there because you want to be…

Jeah, I agree, let’s pamper Seraphine!
Tomorrow is Monday and I am horrified - perhaps I need some kind of medication too.

Lol, loved the link. Those comments on mint condition crack me up. It is amazing what people try to pawn off as mint condition on auction sites.
Get well soon. Pneumonia can be quite bad, do take care of yourself.

Get well soon Sera, please!

I think everybody has that feeling when emptying what’s not needed anymore, but the pain felt during emptying is less than the pain felt when delaying it.
