Smell

It permeates the space in which I dwell. A nasty, awful, disgusting smell. In a corner of hell, around the way, "It smells like death." I heard them say. Surely they jest, surely they play. Could I really smell this way? Alone I am where I dwell... I am death...and I smell.

Such moments of death, such hours of stench we all do come across, but overcome as well... A poem written so well ...
