It's meant to be about an eating disorder: the acidic taste in her mouth is from purging, although it could be interpreted as a visceral reaction to eating. Additionally, her spine being a 'cord' is because she's very small - spines look much different on emaciated people! I wrote it to imply that she is dead, although now I think it seems better if it's more of a warning or foreshadowing.
