in a damp, dim lit alley
as the lights flickered and popped
a shadowy figure passed by
as my heart nearly stopped
tracks in the snow, faded
nearly covered completely
the dense fog brewed, weighted
like freshly painted graffiti
i held my breath
still it floated before me
the remnants of death
was all I could foresee
then, he rose up from nothing
in the mist and the grime
his breath huffing and puffing
from the depths, did he climb
his hands reaching for me
and i trembled with fear
from under that old tree
dressed like william shakespeare
and he whispered to me
way down, below his breath
growly and beastly
quoting scenes from macbeth
"fair is foul, and foul is fair:"
"hover through the fog and filthy air."
stuck frozen, i was standing there
a soiled spot in my underwear
"All the perfumes of Arabia"
"will not sweeten this little hand."
i knew he spoke of my uranus
nothing would tame my wayward gland
for when it's dark
and i'm full of fear
i shart a spark
out of my rear
forgive me spirits and wayward ghosts
excuse my flatulent responses
let me live, i've been diagnosed
with sharting when i am defensless
