Stinker of the Day

The Selfish Man
lacking in social consciousness
or a whiff of human decency
releases a fart
silent but deadly
in a crowded elevator
(or lift if you're a Brit)
then departs
the scene of the hate crime

Leaving behind
the stench of shit
as a thoughtless present

His foul methane gift
to the gagging
watery eyed populace
who now must breathe
through their mouths
for the rest of the trip
If you don't find this tale offensive
perhaps you are the son of a bitch
who dealt it
