Wind- For Acrostrain Contest

What's that awful smell? she cried
I pleaded innocence
No sign of cat, it's still outside
Damn! There goes my defence!

Hmmm. Yes, it could be worse if you are trapped in an elevator. So, if you live near a sewage treatment plant, there is an upside.

There is a treatment plant seven miles away, Duke. Sadly, out of effective range. Thanks for dropping by. regards, Viv
