It’s in the Air

Beneath the deck or behind the limestone 
A haven- not for my family alone 
Within reach yet elusive
How many? – inconclusive
You ask why I don’t like owning a home

This problem resolved two years in the past
Reoccurring strikes of well aimed fetid blasts
Pervading thick fogs of funk
At least one returning skunk 
Trappers assure me this time will be last ________________________
