I was afraid I'd barf up my guts,
and sure enough,
that's just what happened.
It took a long while to get all
the pieces stuffed back in there,
and I wasn't sure where those
loops of intestine belonged,
much less the elusive spleen
we all read about but never see.
So now I'm settling down to sleep,
hoping I did it all right.
Never happened to me before.
