The times were great, greater than most; the pulse was rapid and fired constantly; the worm's saliva was sweet and made the earth rumble; the coffee dripped and my tongue looped to my intestines to lick caffeine off of the inner walls; the sanctity of the mind disintegrated; the fabric of it became singular disconnected threads; everything became drastic and instantaneous; my teeth dissolved because they could not survive this tongue of destruction; I will eat again but it will taste like iron that has been grounded into a soupy meal; the mouth is a bitter place; its bacteria are swollen like the arteries of a vacuum clogged with desolation and *****

The mouth.
The times were great, greater than most; the pulse was rapid and fired constantly; the worm's saliva was sweet and made the earth rumble; the coffee dripped and my tongue looped to my intestines to lick caffeine off of the inner walls; the sanctity of the mind disintegrated; the fabric of it became singular disconnected threads; everything became drastic and instantaneous; my teeth dissolved because they could not survive this tongue of destruction; I will eat again but it will taste like iron that has been grounded into a soupy meal; the mouth is a bitter place; its bacteria are swollen like the arteries of a vacuum clogged with desolation and *****
