...as I waited
Moment of Silence Challenge Entry
So, my underwear fell down, as I waited
in the queue at the store, as I waited
likely, my belt buckle broke, as I waited
eventually leading to embarrassment, as I waited
nice blue jeans sliding to the floor, as I waited
can't explain my boxers falling, though, as I waited
everyone hushed, holding back laughter, as my tackle hung for all to see, as I waited

Thanks for reading!
Author's Notes: Most of my ideas at the moment are dark, gory, scary, depressing, chilling or something not just funny and cheerful. So, this is an antidote to all that. Not based on real-life situation. All events are fictitious and any resemblance to real events or people are merely coincidental.
Here are some less funny pieces:

Haha!!! What a hilarious take, Paul!!
Sure sure! Photo evidence above. The likeness is uncanny. Joking 🙃 Also um.. is this meant to be a streaker?
I think Cathy’s response about covered it, Paul. So I think I’ll pass on any analysis of this one. 😝🤔 Although I will say, this is the sort of nightmare I’ve had since my youth. Is that the Genesis of the poem?Good thing this does not happen in real life (at least not accidentally).
This would have been quite a show if it really happened. Made me giggle. Good work.
This gave me a good laugh but I must ask... did you not feel a draft before the full exposure?? 🤣
wtf? lol. That was great.
Is this an appropriate time to use the Scottish word 'Och!' ? Or am I just being a silly goose? haha. Loved the humor in this piece, Paul!
I don't know whether to laugh or cry! Inspired refrain Paul 👍
Funny and dark, very cruel to him but I am sure a cute gal saw it and thought of him well 😌😂🥰
Stay out of my dreams, Paul! ;)
Well, I want to say something about the meat section or Vienna sausages, but I won't. LOL Got a good chuckle out of this one, pal!
Bahahaha!! Well, there are those embarrassing times when what else can you do but laugh. Great take!! finfunnydamn
