something i never had noticed

so there i was, giving it all, and peeing in the toilet that we keep in our bathroom. as i was smiling and grunting as i pushed urine out of my penis, i noticed a framed picture and poem that i can't believe i hadn't noticed before. it was the "jesus poem." the one about jesus using a "sell-out" explanation for people going through bad times. the one where he's lounging on the beach, corona in hand, and some drunk guy walks by. then jesus goes over and carries him to safety. anyway, i looked at it, and realized i hadn't put it there. in fact, i realized i didn't actually own it. but what caught my eye, was that it was on the top of the toilet. just angled against the wall, and resting peacefully on the toilet. i thought to myself, "out of any wall in this apartment, maybe even any drawer or closet space.....here it is......placed on the old shitter." this made me laugh, and later, i drank. but hours later, in a drunken stupor, i looked up at the ceiling and, "flicked," the ceiling off.
