I am not sure why I wrote this, maybe it was just there as a challenge to upset the flow of words.

Spoiled milk in gag reflections
Yogurt lumps in oh so slimy retreats
Upchucking in green vomit lava flows
Which take your insides out

Alcohol fermented in sauerkraut
Knocking the worst out of you
Oysters wrapped in hamburger fats
Snail tailings in squid tentacles

Convulsions of repeated upheavals
Leaving the toilet brim hanging
With fingers clinging
Talking to it in a full mouth
Of never ending flow

Exhausted but still clinging on
In indentations that shake the hand
In trembles of need
A friend is borne
On a floor in need
You make your new bed

Never again will my head hold so much
Swirling, twirling, intermingling, circulating
Swirling, twirling, intermingling
Swirling, twirling
Swirling
Stopping in the quiet of reflection

Rinse cycle coming up
Swirling
Swirling, twirling
Swirling, twirling, intermingling
Swirling, twirling, intermingling, circulating
Draining, there goes to mother load of all time

Everything spent and dried in time
In weightlessness of excess baggage
Hell let go party
I am hungry now
