Flushed Out

(5-7-5) I'm Told

Worth your weight in gold,

no more cornhusks from days of old

pandemic caused hoarding...all sold!

?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Mundane? Although toilet paper does lack interest, isn't exciting at all, and is most definitely dull...no longer scented or colored pink and blue, like back in the day...I still don't deny it's beauty when I need it! Without its existence, it would be a "stinky" humdrum existence...

According to Oxford Dictionary:

mun·dane

[ˌmənˈdān]

adjective

lacking interest or excitement; dull:

"seeking a way out of his mundane, humdrum existence"

?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

My humble entry from Matthew Fromm's fun challenge:

(There's no way out of the stinky poo I've made here, I'm afraid!)
