Digesting the Past

It takes about a decade for my life experiences to process through my gastrointestinal tract. At time of writing: my stomach leeches nutrients from my early college years; high school still squeezes through my intestines. (Thank goodness, I am shitting out my adolescence. It gave me bad gas.)

Just last June I bit off another chunk of my lifespan. I'm almost done chewing it now. It was not bad, but a bit tart, also maybe too much salt. I will wash it down this summer with red wine and white noise.
