Porcelain children
Navigating through a room occupied by a growing child

As you approach the door with great trepidation, dread and fear
with expectations of malodorous pungent whiffs of stinky socks
Be well armed and prepared to do battle with the ghosts of unwashed underwear upon chair
~
Visions of meals past, rotting food and long expired sliced pizza fare
require face masks, gas masks and smelling salts as you woozily rock
As you approach the door with great trepidation, dread and fear

Walking amongst the mess requires skills of a porcelain magician's dare
tip-toe, tip-toe you go, as squishing sounds echo at the clock's tick-tock
Be well armed and prepared to do battle with the ghosts of unwashed underwear upon chair

You mourn the carbon dust of ceramic porcelain wanton children's lack of care
of such wanting in olfactory perambulations of their intense sense lack
As you approach the door with great trepidation, dread and fear
~
You wonder, did you birth these little stinky monsters whom you rear
who instilled these dreary, abstruse dusty porcelain habits so abstract
Be well armed and prepared to do battle with the ghosts of unwashed underwear upon chair
~
Nouns, verbs, expletives, dusting. A mother sighs as dreams drift and she hears
loving voices and footsteps approaching, berating her for disturbing their beloved muck
As you approach the door with great trepidation, dread and fear
be well armed and prepared to do battle with the ghosts of unwashed underwear upon chair.
