Mingy Moldy Dead Mouse Smell
Mingy moldy dead mouse smell
Like the grease behind your ear
Where is it coming from?
Why is it here?
Pond-scummed dishes
Wafting from the sink
Bulging trash bag
Leaking old shrimp stink
Usually it’s the litter box
Ensconced in the bathroom
Sending urine bulletins
Demanding action soon
Mingy moldy dead mouse smell
Permeating my little home
Should I start with the dishes?
Or stop and write a poem?
