Sit Down Wind -Trickle Down Free Verse Contest

Why does Tilly*
break smelly wind
fed good food
best can buy
why I  wonder
do I try
to sustain levels
maybe I might
just only buy
any cheap meat
this might work
or just maybe
sit down wind
nostrils shut tight
breathe through mouth
sounds so uncouth
poor old Tilly
such a bind
that she has
wind that smells
so yuck

* Tilly my old rescued Boxer *****

Penned 17 July 2013 for trickle down free verse contest.
