The pause that agonizes

I swallowed a whole unchewed ice cube 
it stretches as it rips down my guzzling throat
the Coca-Cola soothes and refreshes the wound. 
Oh boy, I am glad I'm alive to note. 

Note to self: in the future, make sure the ice 
is all melted like you thought, in this glass 
you forgot - and grabbed like a maniac 
to drink down fast 

before it can warm 
even one more degree
towards hot 

ahh
