gods can try

Feedback Received!

Wring me up tied in knots,
Milk my thoughts into a calabash
and let the gods have it as a drink,
Let them sip and not gulp,
Let it linger on their tongues, unwelcomed,
Let them rub their tongues against their teeth
trying to scrap away the unwanted,
asking for water,
do the gods know a thing about mind blisters?

Edit: first instance of unwanted changed to unwelcomed
