Pinch Drown Press
(a choka)
Pinch your arm real hard;
write down first thing that you scream.
Drown under the sink;
transcribe your mesial gasp.
Press nerve on paper;
draw letters lying around.
Tons and tons of ways
to come up with proper noun!
Tons of ways to go back down.

Last line rings — those one-syllable words, and the end rhyme.
Love the press nerve on paper.
