You Must Open

I was disconnecting the
pipes under the sink out
poured black water so
rancid that you could
gag from the smell.
The smell permeated the
whole apartment and
into the hall.
I thought for sure i would
have the smell in my wall.
Quickly lighting candles
with all kinds of scents
to cover the smell that
lingered thickly in the air.
Checking to see was the
clog cleared yet?
No that was not to be.
I will have a real sink
once again just must be
patient you see for the
clog to disperse and
let the water go down.
The verdict was soon to
be displayed for me to
see a drain that would
work for all to see.
The answer was not yet
you see as the drain
had some more rodding
out it was not clear
of all debree.
He said but soon it
would be free.

Wow my friend, you made me feel like life itself is so full of debris that needs to be cleared. If only it is as easy as draining the rancid and foul smell of clogged pipes. Life would be much easier..

Thanks for the view...you made me think how easy it is to fix a broken drainage yet how difficult it is to fix a life full of debris...Love you..teddybear

windy you are so true life is full of debree and how hard it is to see what to get rid of. If only as easy as cleaning my drain which turned out not to be easy at all. Smootches my dear teddybear hug
