But:
To pee or not to pee, that is the question.
Whether it is nobler in the mind to allow gravity it's demands
By frequent visits to that place where relief is to be found.
Or to deny all liquids to the chest after the bewitching hour
Which would otherwise assist in the dissipation of evil substances.
To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub.

Excellent Don! Very cleverly put, and something many of us can identify with I'm sure.

Love it.
You have now set a precedent as the resident satirist.
Next one please.
Or maybe a competition?

Don't encourage me, you will regret it
What is this evil substance that I see before me
Which hath appeared without invitation
Up on my handkerchief of finest linen
Can it be the result of much huffing and puffing?
Is this what my endeavours have bought forth?
I fear it is.........but wait.
Is this not the success I seek,
I believe it is.
Oh joy.

Definitely winning yourself a place with PastMe Best and other scallywags.

You started all this verse up, Don
For us to think and ponder on
It's difficult for us to see
How you avoid the need to pee.
Thick mucus lying on the chest
Is bad...perhaps a pee is best?

Hidden in reply to Tee1008 8 years ago I wandered lonely as a cloud
The bathroom door to seek.
The purpose of the journey
Was to take another leak.
Am I awake or still asleep?
I really cannot tell
But soon I'm back inside my bed.
Relieved, and all is well.
Zzzzzzzzzzz

Hi DonR I can relate to your situation but they say you should drink about 2L of water a day I get thirsty and have a dry mouth because of my inhaler you please one end and vex the other 😆

With apologies to poets:
The quantity of mucus is not strained.
It droppeth, as does Niagra Falls, from heaven
Upon the hankie beneath: it is twice blest;
It blesseth him that coughs and him that spits out.

Just hope you're not on diuretics like me Don, as we men of a certain age face that mighty dilemma every night. Took my Nasal Vent consultant a while to understand why I only slept for 5 hours at a time
