 I consumed rice blended with fish curry, 

added pinches of salt to exit from realms of bland taste. 
 
i licked bare brick wall coated with sand plaster, 
devoured spicy remains of natural plastic paint. 
 
i trampled violently through fields of red pepper, 
sprayed finely crushed powder in the vicinity of shivering tongue. 
 
i swam at feverish pace in extreme salty solvent of the Caribbean sea, 
wiped myself dry to feel allergic patches of faded red. 
 
i pumped the air with a blend of perfume and green mustard seed, 
sat for patient hours basking in a film of spicy atmosphere. 
 
i rolled in clay mud sprinkled with pungent fertilizer, 
smeared my wheatish face with semicircular cakes of flavored mud. 
 
i sat on a cushion containing fermented yellow sour cream, 
smelt of obnoxious odour all throughout the passing day. 
 
i rubbed naked patches of my skin with hot repellant balms, 
danced all day with thunder storms of ecstasy echoing through my eardrum. 
 
i tore big chunks of orange ginger from tender branches of sapling, 
drenched myself with a tumbler full of aromatic water. 
 
i desired to breathe in an ambience of ravishing alligator perfume, 
swim in colossal ponds of suspended salt for the remaining tenure of my life.
