This is an excellent recantation and both poems had a good sense of humor. If the wife isn't happy at your bathroom joke, recant you must less next time you'll have to sleep on the floor of the outhouse. Well done, Tom.

I recognise the photo and it complements your poem perfectly. I had never heard of this form but it sounds fun. Your poor wife suffered from the first poem-LOL. I enjoyed both of them.

Now that's interesting. A form of poetry that's only relevant when you've screwed up another poem. Only poets would think up such a thing. So palinode is some kind of angst relief?
Sorry. I'm not really making fun. I'm just trying to absorb the concept.

I hope your wife forgives you.

Peace, Lee

I am not a great fan of bathroom humor myself Mr T. But this brought back many a memory of a cold run on a winters morn. We were a bit more modern though we had duplex
Two seats instead of one ...

The inversion of the customary 'hue and cry' added to the fun in this little piece. By the way why does Hue begin with an upper case H? Am I missing something? Anyway I trust your apology was accepted!

I rather think it is not a good idea to upset your spouse.
I am not a big fan of outhouse either as I had to make to many called to one as a child. I am glad she called you I it.

Who knew an ode of poo would create a hue? Blue...though perhaps sulphur yellow...me thinks pinks for stinks....oh if your name was Hugh
Wouldn't that do? Ode to odiferous Hugh who's now in deep doo doo with wife Sue. Sewer Sue sues...a worse fight with Hugh ensues....make me stop...this gives me paper work blues..
God bless you Hugh and Sue

I'm not a big fan of swearing or bathroom humor either but try not to let it bother me. This is a fun little poem as was the outhouse.
