My husband said my pants had schmutz,
Perhaps from where I sat
Upon a bench with residue
From when a pigeon shat.
For anyone who doesn’t know
The word or else its meaning,
It’s Yiddish and it translates to
Some dirt requiring cleaning.
You can have schmutz on clothes
Or even schmutz upon your face.
A floor with lots of schmutz might be
Considered a disgrace.
Just listen to the sound of “schmutz” -
It’s plain its definition
Reflects a negativity
In some nearby condition.
