Emotional Effluent

I opened my mouth to speak.

But the words would not come out.

I was filled with indignant indigestion from the ballistic buffet of flatulent fricassee and farfetched fecal fondue that life had fed me ...

Sometimes, this indigestion is good too. What's the use of wasting your words on a deaf world... Vomiting out them would mean the slime be on yourself too...
This was a thought provoking read for me. Well penned.

unfortunately, what is suppressed can become depressed. thank you for thoughts on this YumnaKay.

[Dr. YumnaKay]

True.. It can..
You're welcome, Pete 😊

I can understand this situation Pete, this writing is too straight forward to deny.
"that life had fed me ..." These words explain how tired you, for that matter many of us, are tired with the methods of the world.

[Pete]

thank you Queen-II. that is what led to my downfall in life - caring too much and trying to do what is right in opposition to the ways of society & the world. the world prefers phoniness, lies and facades. where do you go when you don't fit? - you just end up sick & tired. very, very tired.

[Diamond]

I completely understand what you are saying. There is no downfall for the righteous Pete...you emerge and then become the role models for others. Hitting the rock bottom is next to normal for fighters like us. As always enjoyed this conversation with you.

[Kelly Scheppers]

Wow, Pete! I wish I knew how to remedy your situation. I don't think in your case it would be the hair of the dog...good stuff!

[Pete]

thanks so much for your concern K.S. just need to stock up on the alka seltzer i guess! Lol

[Pete]

... and Pepto Bismol! thanks again ...

[Sami Khalil]

I like how you compared emotional waste with solid or liquid waste. Brilliant and to the point. We do feel that way from being fed by politicians, sour relationships and the media...LOl
Excellent...:).......

[Pete]

thank you Sami. seems as though we are constanatly bombarded with waste. started out expressing dissatisfaction and had some fun with words along the way. appreciate your thoughts as always dear poet.

[Sami Khalil]

So true. There is a message here. You are welcome...:).........................

Fantastic Pete,no antacid would fix this heartburn or indigestion from society's platter of sordid degustation. Lol

[Pete]

Lol. yeah, where's the alka seltzer when you need it, right? thank you Andrew.

[Cyprian Van Dyke]

Ah yes, well said poem. What life feeds us is definitely not healthy.

[Pete]

Lol. certainly can feel that way sometimes. thanks for sharing thoughts on this CVD!

[Cyprian Van Dyke]

So bad that you are having pain. Health is wealth, but we run behind wealth and not health.
Indigestion is truly painful. I have experienced it, its horrible. Take care Pete.

[Pete]
