Verse And Worse

Random Wit, Errant Rhyme. Not A Literary Crime

Algernon Peters
Bought odor-eaters
He put them in his boots
And the pockets of his suits

Now this is a man you could certainly smell before he came into sight. No need for blood hounds here!

But he wasn't sure,
If it was a good cure!

I can smell him from here!

Like the pyramid that your poem made.
Pleasing to the eye as well as funny!

Stinky pockets? There's a poem in there somewhere...:)

The world said, "Algernon, give us a treat!
And go upstairs and wash your feet!
And then go to Boots and get some spray
To keep that awful smell at bay!"

I once knew a man who bought Odor-Eaters, opened the package, and he completely disappeared.
