Discussion with a cancer survivor

"Oh, so you bought those things? They sure made them look appealing I suppose."

"Yeah, figured I'd try them. I guess if water ever starts tasting boring, these will help. Worth a shot."

"Right, I'm curious whats in them. Is it sugar or what is it exactly?"

" Well lets see... it says use one squirt for every 8 ounces of water. This is 12 ounces. So I'll just use two for safe measure."

" So... is it sugar or is it natural flavors or...?"

" Mmm... yeah thats pretty tasty"- takes another sip- " Yup, works better than I thought. It says right here theres potassium sulfate and propylene... oh wow. Um... it says propylene glycol. I think thats antifreeze. Thats not good..."

I began laughing uncontrollably.

"Nope, thats not good at all."

"Here grab some water and try this. Let me know what you think."

" I'm alright. I think after you told me it was antifreeze, I lost my curiosity."


(Still looking for critiques and/or ideas on my last post. Dont be scurd! Say something, anything; tell me you fucking hate every word or give me a thumbs up or tell me you want to have more images of kittens! I have one criticism so far and an unfinished skeleton of a poem. Lets put some muscle on it and let it breath. )
