Mexican for lunch
Was not the best idea.
The gurgles won't stop.
I down some water
And sit down for my meeting.
It's on Zoom; I'm safe.
I wave hello and
Unmute to laugh at a joke.
Otherwise I sit.
With no expression
Besides a thoughtful calm gaze
As my lunch does flips.
I feel the pressure
Building up inside my gut.
I hold my face still
As I rip one, loud,
And free- a load is lifted.
Then the talking stops.
First, I am confused.
And then mortified- I see
A green outline on my tile.
