WHIFF
My first reaction
Is to back away
Leave you alone
In the stench
You bath
My second and third
Is the same?
It takes an effort
To breathe
To stay
But I must
For it I am paid
To give
No matter
How rank
How low
Or high
The status
Of those
Who seek?
No matter
That I cannot
Concentrate
Light headed
From the reek
CALDER WOLFE
