Sensory

The human-felt sensations, in no particular order.
Through touch, sight, sound, smell, and taste. But also pain and occasional misbehavior 

Gentle, hard, rough, loud, hot
Brittle, bruising - feel or not?
Bitter, harsh, moist, sober, bombed
Bubbly, juicy, smooth and stoned

Pressure, burning, shake and sting
Wetness, freshness rains bring
Ache and pain, vibration, shock
Trembling, loud, aftershock

Balmy, biting, piercing, high
Fresh and fishy, airy sky
Humid, hurtful, salty, light
Floral, noisy, quiet, bright

Bumpy, scratchy, scalding, tight
Firm and foul, dull, delight
Aromatic, faint, lush
Distant, medicinal, brush

Deep, dark, damp, dry, dusky, tart
Soft or hard, stiff - a la cart
Faint, firm, inflamed, wet
Booming, burning, scalding, sweat

Noxious, thirsty, yummy, stale
Squeaky, spicy, windy gale
Faint, crispy, foul, sweet
Sunny, frosty, cold or heat

Shiny, tasty, silent, warm
Wasted, tipsy, smashed - the norm
Shapely, snuggly, calm or tense
Hairy, ticklish, pleasant hence

Zesty, solid, oral, close
Tender, penetrative dose
Solid, sour, spongy, sting
Rhythmic, soaring, weightless swing

We, the humans, feel and sense
List of words are my two cents
Paint a portrait, doodle, skit
And the image is complete
