Mr Skunk

I had an uninvited visitor disturb me in the middle of the night. It’s not that he was disrespectful or like those who never smile and take delight in misery. No, he was just close by with no intent to harm. But last night’s guest walked by my bedroom window and let fly an odor that disturbed much needed rest. The stench exceeded the familiar scent and struck olfactory nerves with grievous force. A headache woke me up, would not relent, and several hours since grew even worse. This skunk exceeded what I’ve ever smelled. In stink-o-land he is unparalleled.
