A Walk At the Sewage

A yearning young man
Courting, court but be told
Remember, and very so, the schedule
Take a walk at the sewage
Breathe the freshness of the sewage
Watch the lover birds date 
Pecking and giggling
Chirping and flipping
And nimbyists blushing 
When the breeze eases
Then your return ticket
Has all wisdom

At home there’s too much good
Token and spoken 
Waiting to learn
Assess and access
The cool cesspool
