All Out of Soap

My chores are all done, what now shall I do?
I’ve self-checked my prostate and left nipple to.
I woke up this morning face down in the grass.
The dog won’t come in, she’s tired of my swass.

I guess I’ll just wait for a new morning’s sun.
The squirrels smell me coming and begin to run.
The backyard is empty, not even a skunk.
I’m all out of soap no way to defunk.

Very cute - I had such a good time reading this poem. Humor may not be the mvp but, it is avp (a valuable ...) - it's late so it's possible you'll get nothing that makes sense from me right now. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

Geeze, Mark. If you chased away a skunk you'll need more than soap to 'defunk' yourself. Phew! Humor accomplished!
