through misfires, synapses fail to trigger,
churning juices in stagnant chambers,
rolling waves of uncontrolled volume
thrust up into regurgitated waste,
and the storm quiets momentarily.
debris removed,
fresh textiles comfort,
with head raised,
pace of infusion slowed,
awaiting hopeful retention of the lost,
again to be retrieved.
the only sound heard
after the gagging stops,
whimpering sighs,
kangaroo pump.
