Passing Wind

...starting a community poem, feel free to add on...like the game of telephone, come on...you know you want to! All the cool kids are doing it...(Maybe I have been working with kids WAAAAY too long...)


You knew it was coming.
How could you not?
With a theme like that,
What else would be hot?

Passing wind, farting, whatever you call it
Will always be friendly
Hilarious and comical
No matter how many times you do it

  1. Too many times, I'd be sitting in class
    When, wouldn't you know it, a big ball of gas
    Would come rumbling up from the depths of my tummy
    All but the teacher would think it was funny

    The number of names of this feat are so diverse
    I can't even begin to describe them all in verse:

    Air biscuit, breezer, beef, and one-cheek-sneek
    Room-clearer, honker, trouser trumpet, and squeak
    Ass rumbling, cheek flapping and letting it rip
    Pant-ripper, poot, and -my favorite- air tulip

    But the Farting Grand Prize, it goes to my mom
    Who'd redden with shyness when she'd drop a bomb
    Of wet stinky inky, and -no, I'm not goofing-
    She'd giggle, and redden, and say, "Oops, I'm FLOOFING."

  3. OK, that, my dear friend. Is ingenious. It reminds me of Shel Silverstein's stuff. Good work.

  4. I'll post the new-and-improved one later if that's cool. I adding onto yours, flow-of-consciousness style. Who knew I had an aptitude for writing fart poems!

  6. so i was planning on posting this someday, but this is a little too appropriate. this is from 9th grade:

    Invisible Killer

    A faint smell at first
    Then grows, until it hurts
    Stench fills the air
    At the flesh, it beings to tear
    Your lungs being to burn
    For the safety of water you yearn
    It pierces the once-clean air
    Contaminates everything, even your hair
    And finally a lethal arrow to the heart
    The life, of a putrid fart
