A horrendous smell is in my house
Time to track it down
Have to find the source
Before it reaches into town
First prediction was dirty dishes
I traveled to the sink
Upon arriving, the sink was empty
Not the cause of the terrible stink
I turned my focus to the refrigerator
Open the door, sniff and pause
My nose tells me there’s no spoiled food
This location isn’t the cause
Thought for sure it was the bathroom
It doesn’t get much love
To my surprise, it’s spot free
Clean enough to eat off of
My final stop was the trash can
How was this idea not one of my first?
An empty bag was all that was there
My brain was about to burst
I’ve run out of ideas for this mystery smell
I don’t know where it could be
I guess I’ll go and take a shower
Looks like the awful smell is me.
