With apologies to whoever wrote the one about the Duchess at tea:
I stood next to the POTUS in line.
Everything was going just fine,
But his rumblings abdominal
We're simply phenomenal,
And his odors digestive,
Really quite restive;
Then he told the whole room they were mine!

And like a slave subdue your restive pride."
