Is it Poop? A Haiku

Butt to Face is best

Stench rockets up your nostrils

Why, yes! It is poop.

There is no good, fast way to check a baby’s diaper to see if it is soiled. If you really want to know for sure, you have to take a peek, which means disrobing the child, a time-consuming process. But if you’re in a hurry, then a 99%* approximation will have to do. This is also known as the smell test, and when the results come back positive, it is never a pleasant experience.

I was reminded of this unfortunate fact of life this morning as I was getting ready for work, and it so rocked my world that I felt compelled to share it with you.

* Everybody farts. Everybody. (Yes, ladies, I’m looking at you.)
