The Public Fart

The Public Fart

It's really an art
Releasing a fart
Especially in public places.

You know you can tell
If they’ve caught the smell
By looks that are on people’s faces.

Their noses will twitch
As if there’s an itch
And their eyes may then open quite wide.

They may glance around
Or look at the ground
As they search for whatever has died.

Some may raise a hand
Pretending they’d planned
To fan at the air near their noses.

Yet others may cough
In hopes to fend off
The smell as your fart decomposes.

With watery eyes
They may then surmise
That some person has caused that bouquet.

They haven’t a clue
That it was all YOU!
Just keep "moving on" and walk away.
