Come Out

Relese

Come Out

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
