Fermented Nerd
This is not what forms in stomach,
and goes through the intestines,
to be ejected as waste,
This is something that is formed,
by a union of brain,heart and soul,
it rests about there ,
alternating residences now and then,
it is formed at about the time,
you made your first conscious adult thought,
it comprises of ego,anger,lust,hatred,falsehood,
ignorance,jealously,laziness and dishonesty,
it is to name a only a few,
of its attributes,
normally other attributes come along to,
ferment it real well,
My body odours are distinct,
but you could not stand the odour,
of this nerd,
this odour grows more pungent and nauseating,
as I move along in age,
the odour can be felt and not smelt,
it is peculiar of its odour alone,
the odour slowly pervades,
the heart,brain and soul,
till they send it to all body parts,
a day comes when body/soul stop their journey,
part killed by this odour,
but the emanating nerd remains,
and is interred with remains.
