Have you encountered the horror

of the shower? Its welcoming arms

embrace you in the warm, lush flow of water,

the smooth, easy flow of water

off your skin.


I mean, washing your hair takes up time,

right? Oops –

the bottles are plastic,

the shampoo has palm oil?


Well, sometimes you need a calming down session,

right?

Oops. You could do something better

for the environment – reading?

talking? playing a board game?


Yes, the shower is dangerous!


But, the quiet time,

So nice!

The privacy,

Ahhhh…


When you wash yourself, though,

Where does all your hair go?

Oops.

Down the drain.


And after that, where does your hair go?

Into the sewer.

And what does your hair do?

It webs the waterways,

squeezes the sewer and

chokes the pump.


For the last time, I tell you


take a shorter shower,

wash your hair

once a week or fortnight and

use cakes of shampoo, not

those nasty plastic bottles, and

comb your hair before the shower, because


THE SHOWER IS DANGEROUS!!!
