One day I smelled the stinkiest stink
coming from my bathroom sink
or was it coming from the halls…
the basement, bedroom, kitchen walls…?
I tossed my brother’s dirty socks,
I emptied out my whole toy box.
Threw out the cheese, the milk, the fruit
I even gave my dog the boot!
I threw my pillows out the door,
the couch, the chair, the hardwood floor!
I told my sister, “Take a hike!”
then threw out both her skates and bike.
I hurled my hairbrush in the yard,
wadded up my birthday cards,
launched the lamps into the street,
and then I looked down at my feet…
