Everyone does it,
yet it’s hard to talk about.
Even when discussing health,
the last part gets blurred out.
It feels like there are only two options:
make a joke, or stay silent.
Ossan’s answer:
There’s nothing wrong with poop itself.
What’s hard to handle
is the honesty of the body.
It happens without effort.
It ignores self-control.
It resists clean wording.
That clashes with the version of ourselves
that wants to appear composed.
So we avoid it.
Or we laugh.
That reaction is natural.
There’s no need to fix it.
Just noticing that tension
is already enough.
