Prolonged offal bout courtesy constipation... redux revisited

Upteenth instance where yours truly
experienced assault upon hindquarters.

A worse hellish fate than perdition
and the closest in the throes 
of agonizing death scene rendition
stabbing sphincter muscle spasms 
wrench yours truly 
analogous to contortionist,
who presents convincing torturous scenario
even absent primal screams
readers or eavesdroppers
envisioning his twisting and writhing 
as if body frankly

It seems not even your own God could answer my prayer,
Truth be told, he may have someone for you that is better.
Even after you have moved on, my love is still getting stronger.

We were both going to college. 
Science class is where we both met, 
I was astonished at his knowledge. 

My thoughts of him more than friends, 
as some girls eyed him with his letter-man sweatshirt.
He was tall and looked so handsome. 

When the day's classes were over, 
he would walk me to my car. 
Sweet

Prolonged Offal Bout Courtesy Constipation Turgid Song Redux

Prolonged offal bout courtesy constipation... turgid song redux,
a worse hellish fate than perdition really sucks

As of early morning
today - September 8th, 2022,
I could not but barely move
mine whole body felt
analogous to sluggish mollusk
frequent constipation found me
doubled over in gastrointestinal agony
as if elephant stomping on tummy
or red livid with rage.

I've re: created how bull

Navigating My Health

My spinal column was extremely painful.
As a believer in bodily regeneration 
I had endured for long, hopeful
For a natural recuperation.

However, the condition kept getting worse.
Changing sides in bed waxed hard.
The back felt any sudden force
On the ribs if pushed outward.

It being then several weeks of this ordeal
I was forced to seek medical help.
I figured that

Premium MemberPlease Hurry Back Home

The earth continues to fight
Against the virus
Strenuously
A prolonged war indeed
And once MCO is off
Families start to gather
Hearts come closer
Love reunion
Suddenly
I heard a heart cries
Before MCO again
Please hurry back home, love
I miss you so

Prolonged Offal Bout Courtesy Constipation Redux 1

Prolonged offal bout courtesy constipation... redux
a worse hellish fate than perdition

At least forty eight hour time span
lapsed whereby big boy wanted to cry
explaining how yours truly 
felt he would die
an undertaking malaise
found me experiencing physical duress vis a vis,
a bowel movement,
wherein waste unable to expel
from the anus of this guy,
which bout with rectal obstruction

Prolonged Offal Bout Courtesy Constipation Redux 2

Upon swallowing first or second named laxative
or sprinkling Mix-in powder pack,
within 8+ ounces of water,
not aesthetically pleasing major drawback
foisting human waste heavy as a full coalsack
sometimes burned and scorched black
movement came swift, on par how fast
snaky Mister liquid Plumber doth attack
obstructed potty bowl.

Well now... monumental poetic challenge,
I now craftily abbreviate
(think clogged toilet synonymous with blockage)

Hampered decades withered wasted

Prolonged Life

I wanna live to a hundred-and-three
A minor footnote in history
Oh yeah

I wanna live to a hundred-and-six
They’ll bury my bones among the sticks
Oh yeah

I wanna live to a hundred-and-nine
My blood just like fermented wine
Oh yeah

I wanna live to a hundred-and-twelve
Baby I’ll never kill myself
Oh no

I wanna live to a hundred-fifteen
Ride in some futuristic limousine
Oh yeah

I wanna

Life Prolonged

I was supposed to die today
Week after week I'd withered away
I could no longer face the desperate hours
Always reminded that I have no power
I have no love and I have no hope
No more have I the ability to cope
I wanted to die and that was it
So I poured a bleach cocktail and began to sip

Prolonged Stay In Power

One day,I stood on the mountain
Watching security forces using force to disperse demonstrators
Who had gathered in  the commercial capital___
Blocked off traffic to a large part of the city:
To protest against their leaders' prolonged years in power.

His henchmen believe that he has kept his country,
On a relatively stable economic path:
But critics say at the expense
