The things...
I remember these things, too...
The sweet fluffy aromas escaping into the air.
The stillness of my body as I trudged along the tile.
The watering of my mouth as my taste buds awakened.
Then their was the sight of that sewage smelling muck.
I could hear the vibrations of my mothers footsteps like bullets of rain on a pale.
So as she neared I became frightful and quickly disposed if it. I did not want to prolong the morning.
I stood up and followed as she guided me to the sweet aromas. Then we were off. I entered the jungle with formal projections. I strolled with calm struts.
A stinch arose like a grenade,
So powerful my innocence could not seteine why.
As I geared up for our normal routines I noticed the muck. It was inescapable and consumed me whole.
I thought "what should I do?"
