Elevator Gas
I was walking around with some comrades who came in from all over the State to be in Albany
It was a whole day of protests
And Folks from various parts along the east coast presented a case for their causes, like;
Mass incarceration, housing injustice, vaccination standards, and worker's rights reforms
After several short yet exhausting trips to different offices, I was brought to a place of extreme discomfort
I had to fart like a mutha fucka
I was on an elevator with some important looking people sipping their Starbucks, when all of a sudden gas welled up in my stomach and forced a heavy thrust down the pit of my gut, my ass was about to erupt any minute
I was backed up and needed a release until the doors opened and I rushed past everyone, nearly tackling a nice lady from Syracuse. I shouted; “Good luck on your school board race, sis.” As I attempted to dip off to the bathroom around the corner, I was too late.
A Tuba solo of whole notes blasted out of my asshole,
A submarine horn from the ocean shore left me looking crazy!
I’m Damaging air quality harder than the Canadians right now
But looking back on it, I ain’t ashamed, cause their shit stank too
Just look at the budgets, pie graphs, charts and facts, figures, different profiles of various State Senators and Assembly-people
When you sum up all up, their deeds, I was pretty light on the ice when it comes to shitting on people
Moral of the story is: Don’t be afraid
It happens to the best of us
If you find yourself in the midst of important people who jack off in Zoom meetings and pretend that their doing a good job for their community
Make sure the night before you load up on all the beans, greens, potatoes, tomatoes, lambs, ham, hogs, dogs. Thank you!
