Piss Amnion

11/04/2026

Suddenly I'm 10 again,

and I've pissed my pants at an age I shouldn't be doing this anymore.

I can smell the uric stench,

and I'm sure the boys in my class can too.

I'm so small now I start to drown in my mess.

A sea of bitter acrid and salt fills my mouth and lungs.

Everything around me disappears,

or maybe it's just me that disappears.

I float.

A waking sleep in a faint yellow darkness.

I am finally warm again,

home safe,

in the amnion.
