spicy

If you want to put your mouth on fire,
Why not try something spicy?
Go on,
Throw in a red pepper and let it sit there.
The taste touches the tongue first,
And then it makes your nose run
And it makes your body warm
And you start to sweat
And pant
And then you're crying and your face is scrunched up in pain
And soon before you know it, you are dying of thirst.




When I think of spicy foods,
I think about all of this and ask myself,
Do I want to burn my tongue?
No, I do not.


But if I had to commit suicide,
It would be by eating ten peppers.


I wish I could put an evil face on this.
