Diaper Alert

My God!
what's in yond wind yee broke
doth burn mine eyes 
and make me choke.

Such bitter breeze
such wafting savour 
assaults mine senses
which flee in terror!

No sewage pit
nor stagnant mire
cans't rival thine
unholy power.

A road dead skunk
in a summer's swelter
would smell more like a rose
most precious flower.

What cursed perfume
thou  villainous rouge
doth linger in thine wake 
be gone and find your mom I say
it's her turn for goodness sake!

As a Father who's changed his share of diapers and the nu-forgettable smell is one of the ways I get even as a grandparent. Nicely done.
