crutch with strawberry extract accentuated with sautéed foot inside
screwed up maggot genitalia accentuated with moldy diseased body parts
and opossum clitoris dressing, dished up in a congealing casserole
overflowing with fatty medley of cherry tomato, carrot and sausage in
ghastly cancerous growth juice, a side of clydesdale spleen and a pint
of mouldy yoghurt.
