be not afraid to speak truth
to thunder using the language of proverbs

eating from street dumpsters
with long spoons dining with the devil

Why?
Because we have paid Iba (homage)
to the vagina that is turned
upside down, yet
does not drip

If you take a guess, I will inbox you with the answer.
Soon after you make a guess, check your inbox for the answer.
