Liquid sugar falls down my tongue,
numbing my taste buds. Sweet
waves of flavour crash against
my cheeks, sending colourful
relish into my throat. Bitter
drinks stain my decayed teeth
caramel brown. Stomachs
expand, blood drowns
an ugly smile as I choke
on false dentures. I stare
at the empty can of a person.
I think,
taste the feeling
