The shower is dangerous!

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!!!
