You've known your own age
You've got hundreds of statues
Third seems beneath you.

In the red.
Home sweet home.
Another time, another place.

wooly twins to bathe
soaped-up, separated,
forever alone.

a tube with a turn
in a bath that doth churn
life's mystery.

Haha, nope. Clever, but way off.

Oh and that is a haiku clue to the previous haiku about the wooly twins.

Even with the clue, I'm not touching that one...

Haha, it does sound kinda dirty! But it isn't. It is most definitely not dirty in any sense.
