If you soil underwear you may need
to go buy some Depends to succeed.
Scented ones are the best
and when put to the test
no one knows when you’ve pooped or you peed.

When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy



Kindness is a seed sown by the gentlest hand, growing care's flowers.

If you've pooped or you've peed, it depends
whether underwear's wet, as it tends
to be messy inside.
You would know if you'd tried
to dispel all the smell that offends

If you’d quell any smell that offends
you must thoroughly wash at both ends
but take care what you eat;
cauliflower and meat
may result in foul burps and the winds!

If fowl burp in the wind, who will hear?
If they fart, won't affect nose or ear
so just let them fly on
and don't ponder upon
smells and sounds that will soon disappear.

Smells and sounds will all soon dissipate
as we age; that is part of our fate
but new things may arise
long before our demise.
Memories that now fade aggravate.

Fading memories oft agitate
you as well as your fifty-year mate
but you soon will forget
that you once named your pet
who dug holes in your lawn, Excavate

Excavating your lawn digging holes?
Is a garden plot one of your goals?
I’d suggest a small plow
might be better, somehow.
It looks like you’re infested with moles!

If your face is infested with moles
you should have dermatologist goals
He'll remove all those bumps,
level off all your lumps
and he'll do it without leaving holes

When the holes in your face equal five;
two to see, three to keep you alive,
you’ve used water and soap
without being a dope
to believe all that cosmetic jive!

If you think all his jive is cosmetic
and his reasoning simply pathetic
just retreat to your den
to watch Newsmax and then
you'll be speaking as though you're prophetic
