don't make us hold our breath

The presence of exhaust gas in our air, in our lungs is an ordinary thing. Everybody is used to it, but we don't usually keep it in mind all the time, except the times when it becomes too obvious. Today I had to deal with a severe air-pollution. An old white van close to falling apart passed me hastily leaving an incredibly poisonous cloud of black smoke behind it. I tried to hold my breath but the smell continued for too long. Think about others, fix your stinky cars, people! [22.03.13]
