Disaster in an alley

by Marcus Clark

It was a useful type of felling in my belly
First as an awareness then a feeling like jelly
Anticipation turns to Panic whilst a search commences
but in downtown Denver there are not hiding fences

One store after another refuses my advances
I turn down an alley to take my chances
Maybe it's just number one and not the second try
I squeeze between two dumpsters and open up my fly

Wishing these stores would allow a persons natural tendencies
I give my innards a little pressure being thankful of these allies
uncontrolled waste releases with cramps
I stand there humiliated because I just shit my pants
