My Toilet Mocks Me

My toilet mocks me.
It won't stop running.
I jiggle the handle and it just falls down.
I open the tank and lift, drop, tug everything in there.
The water keeps running.
The tank does not fill so it can never flush.
The sound is like hissing laughter.
"Haha foolish mortal! You must journey to the upper regions just to pee!''
My toliet mocks me.

Don't feel bad Rima, our toilet mocks our Forest Gump like cat. I'm not sure what's being said but the cat spends hours with his head in the bowl. So tempted to through tea leaves in. Love Lisa
