Can’t
Keep
Anything
Down
Even though this thick saccharine bile
Is missing its acidity
It makes up for it in its complexity
From my churning innards
Everything
Keeps
Coming
Up
Unstoppable almost, until the cloying mass
Is no longer the only thing evacuating
Accompanied by what was acceptable to remain
Will burn my throat and make its own way
Dropping
Into
My
New
Acquaintance
Until it is satiated
And I go back for more
Only to empty myself
Into it for the second time
Rising
Suspicion
Questioning
Ensues
I deny all I can
Until I can’t anymore
As I gargle and beg
For artificial freshness
Am I really who I think I am?
Yes.
If I’m asking the answer is probably
Yes.
Sick ritualistic unreasonable belligerent
Yes.
