Still Going for a Win

Hosed, he may not win, piehole’s constricted.
   Food tossed into pipe, and wedged.
      Yet, with save, he’s unhinged.

Forgive me, but this poem makes me sick. I hate those gorging contests. They always make me feel full when I see it at dinnertime.

That is a most horrible, frightening experience. Never the phase, I get by with a little help from my friends, as more poignant meaning. Blessings.

Thanks! Heard about a food contest, eating the most. The man was choking. Saved and still kept on with the contest. Good for him…lol. For me, I almost choked to death (literally) in Boot Camp. Two ladies with me. One saves my life. Bless her. I couldn’t breathe at all.
