for those about to rock

pardon me?

i was outside on our porch, minding my own business and smoking a quiet cigarette, when i saw a fat skunk skittering along the sidewalk across the street.

then, i heard a rustling in the bushes in front of our house. i looked down to see a smaller skunk
tromping its way towards my neighbors' house.

i sniffed for stink, but didn't notice any.

"good," i thought a moment after it had passed, "it saw that i was keeping to myself and left me alone."

then, a second later, i smelled a faint, needling odor.

and then, for one insane split second, i was actually offended.
