I Fear Its Stench

Feeling a rumbling deep in my gut I'm not quite sure what that’s all about as I clench the sphincter in my butt. Something rank is trying to get out and based upon my bloated bowel it's going to succeed; I've no doubt. I might need to throw in the towel as past experiences affirm and yet, I fear its stench could be foul. An internal pressure makes me squirm and I’m counting down to the blastoff when this gassy build-up comes to term. There is no way I can put this off and yet, to concede may not be smart even when it’s disguised, with a cough. What if it turns out it's not a fart, but its embarrassing counterpart?

Your dilemma is so real I know exactly how you feel When the rumble at the start Indicates you need to fart Let me give you some advice Pooping instead will not be nice Since you'll be left standing there In your now soiled underwear
