Only a little movement
Only smelly gas is released
Stomach bubbling
Why is the intestine not working
Almost a whole week passed by
Tried all kinds of natural fibers
Ate a piece of fruit a few times throughout the day
Nothing happened
Just sat on the toilet waiting and waiting
Waiting for nothing
Time to take a pill
And wait for it to work
After eating barbecue, and baked potatoes, alone with beans
Plums and cherries for snacks
Something, something must come out
The smell of the gas is saying these inside ain't right
It needs to come out
Still waiting for it to come out

Well-narrated. When gut works well, we take it for granted. I hope, you find relief.
Fiber dont work if you have stuck poop. If you have good kidneys try pickle or banana pepper mild juice. Or Stool softeners with miralax
I know just how you feel
I love the way you turned an unpleasant experience into a fun poem!
