Food Fuckin Hates Me
Food... Hurts...
Everything has alliums in it
Bet you dont know what that is
The alliums that exists in your food
You'd be amazed by the things
You just dont notice when nothing hurts you
It's in every savory thing you put in your mouth
And yet you stand there and tell me it can't be
So you read the ingredients and your eyes twitches
As you grab and scan item after item
It's in everything, huh? Can't imagine how that feels
Now just fucking imagine if you were intolerant to it
That it makes you puke simply because
your body cant get rid of it fast enough
The stomach aches when theres just faint amounts
The headaches and rushes to the bathroom
The er visits when you've puked so much you cant get anything down
Drinking so much Pedialyte that you have a favorite flavor (blue raspberry)
Imagine someone cooks for you and ignores your requests
And then gets pissed because you projectile vomit their food out
"It cant be too bad", "but I really like this restaurant", "I simply dont know how to cook without them"
There's nothing you can eat!
Everything has it, the world is just pain
What do you do when everything is pain?
How can you escape all of these?!?!?!
Garlic, onion, leeks, green onion, shallots, scallions, chives, mugwort, purple Sensation,globemaster allium,g ladiator allium, corkscrew allium, wild onions, wild chives, rock onion, easter lily, madonna lily, tiger lily, orange lily, daffodils, tulips, agapanthus, iris, istroemeria
Everything has alliums in it
Bet you dont know what that is
The alliums that exists in your food
You'd be amazed by the things
You just dont notice when nothing hurts you
It's in every savory thing you put in your mouth

I know this poem is a mess. Just hanging out with my toilet because someone decided to put allium under "seasonings" again.

You enlightened me to Google what alliums are and consistyof to educate myself, thank you.
Really excellently poeted.
I'm totally heartbroken that you have to deal with such an awful and debilitating situation. I hope there's options that eventually become available, making it easier day to day.

I hate that you hurt, and I love that you write.
But you knew that already.
I hope things will be better for you, and that you'll keep writing.
I'm waiting for the book.

The strange thing is that we as humans must consume the dead in order to live.
Choice of course.

"You'd be amazed by the things

Damn. Mos def.
I read a while back that all food is poison in a sense, because digestion wears out your organs and, eventually, you'll be unable to receive vital sustenance. We are all born to live, wither and die, but I find that it helps sometimes to focus on breath, feel life and death always entwined.
Your poem doesn't seem a mess to me anymore than living is a mess, it reads like life

I wish we could just simplify things, ya know? Lots of things seem needlessly complicated

Sorry you've been going through such a difficult condition. Most folks are unaware but it sounds like you've gone through some horrible experiences. As always, you bring awareness to many of us who didn't even know about this.
Hope you're doing ok.
