THE STINKIEST JOB!
I have the stinkiest job
Which ever stank,
I clean the insides
Of septic tanks!
They lower me by
A slender rope,
Which I pray
Won’t break, I hope,
And I must use
A small toothbrush,
I scrub and scrub,
And never rush,
As I scrub the walls
Inside vile bins,
I listen to strings
Of Vivaldi’s violins,
Then, I scrub and scrub
With bars of lye soap,
To remove all
Tank poop, I hope,
I love my job,
But I may ask,
My boss if I…
May wear a mask! 😊
