Gastrostorm
March 25, 2014
Struggling to finish my third plate
Declaring that I could literally
Die
On this earth happily
After consuming this feast.
I will mourn
For all the food is gone now.
Gurgle growl rumble!!
Whoa.
What was that?
The room is spinning
Making
Me
Delirious
I’m about
to give
Birth
To this feast.
There’s a wild thunderstorm
In my stomach.
OWWWWW!!
The contractions are
Getting closer
I’m drenched in sweat.
Wait. Who
are
you?
A black silhouetted stranger
Approaches me
With
Toilet paper.
“Here, you’re gonna need this.”
