Asphyxiation

In this dream
You fill your throat
Before you choke
Regurgitate
Or swallow
Your hearasies
Are your disease
Of intellect
That's hollow.

It seems...

that we take too big a mouthful and can't chew what we have before we swallow. How can we learn from our mistakes if we choke on the crap that we feed ourselves?
