Saw you down a dark drain.
You were wearing a boiler suit and rubber gloves.
I was watching not knowing what to do.
If you are a plumber I need you.... call me
Seriously folks - I am desperately seeking a wise plumber. Names and numbers welcome.

Have you heard of the plumbers crack? My plumber is the poster child.
Ode to a plumber
Society's refuse his dancing partner,
Waltzing in places our parents preferred we didn't go
Speaking to our shadows
Divining our lives in ways ancient, reliable
and certain
unholy company
bestowing priest like qualities
as he lies contorted and in communion
so that we might be spared the truth
Ted

Great poem Ted.
Gravity sucks the straws
of plumbing stacks and vents
Shit rolls downhill
most of the time
and when not
A plumbers snake squiggles
in places too course to mention
the sewer inhales through all our houses
democracy

Brown tepid outwash
With the sun above gives birth -
A blooming orchid
OK, so my haiku is getting rusty. It never was polished chrome. At least it's Brad's 5-7-5.
Dave J - your on for the movie. I have no back up. Please do NOT be inspired in your movie choice by the correspondence!
