Scatologinode: To A Fart

A squeeze, then bang! you’re born,
Your stench pollutes the morn;
So thick, so warm, so yuk,
So transient: thank fuck!

[I can’t claim to be the pioneer but I am probably the first to coin (and perhaps the only) poet to date to use the word Scatologinode to describe the artform, meaning a short, intensely scatological verse. This is the first to be published on-line - April 10, 2002 - and was first published in Scatoligicus Eroticum, February 1993.]
