For The Towels Toils Poem by Joe Rosochacki

“For Whom the Paper Towels Toils, It toils for Thee”,
I viewed on the TV this morn
That Good Housekeeping had tested
Paper-towels dispensers, some good
And some forlorn.
They had tested motion detectors ones,
Vertical ones, horizontal ones every which way ones,
Even those that can't but could.
What kind of drugs were they on,
Or they think we are to stupid to understand, that $30.00
is alot to pay for ripping the pre-perforated towels from
the bolt, it wasn't yesterday that we born.
I pray the day that humans will actually tear apart paper towels
With their hands,
And forget about what they saw, or didn't see on tv,
And I say to that Good Housekeeping Labs,
You got too much time on your hands,
Next you'll be testing the economical,
testing ergomanically designed
tubes of toothpaste, brush detectors and all.
