the young delinquent
since his smoking became more frequent
added to the late night excursion on the terrace
a pre-bath smoke before the mirrors
trusting the efficiency of the exhaust fan as well
as the rich aroma of the new shower gel
but then one evening his luck ran out
there was a rather untimely black-out
and in the dank smoky darkness sank
in the realization that the exhaust fan
was not connected to the inverter battery back-up
they wouldn’t open, the windows were stuck
the smoke mixed with the shower gel
gave rise to a smell you just couldn’t quell
and just then his mum began to shout
calling him for dinner without
his mind was blank, what excuse?
that was when all hell broke loose
