Ok your use of "wallow" threw me off -- because there's really no way he could wallow up on the top of that pole -- he could barely sit -- let alone wallow... here's the definition:

wal·low **Pronunciation Key**(wl)
intr.v. wal·lowed, wal·low·ing, wal·lows
To roll the body about indolently or clumsily in or as if in water, snow, or mud.
To luxuriate; revel: wallow in self-righteousness.
To be plentifully supplied: wallowing in money.
To move with difficulty in a clumsy or rolling manner; flounder: ?The car wallowed back through the slush, with ribbons of bright water trickling down the windshield from the roof? (Anne
Tyler).
To swell or surge forth; billow.
n.
The act or an instance of wallowing.
A pool of water or mud where animals go to wallow.
The depression, pool, or pit produced by wallowing animals.
A condition of degradation or baseness.

OK but maybe you have taken liberty w/ the luxuriation of urine? Or maybe you were playing off the noun suggesting that he would like to have been playing in his own urine like an animal if only he was allowed to wallow...?
