Colonoscopy Cuisine - A Dirge

Clear liquids, Oh yes, you can brew them
But you can't eat or lick or chew them

I'm so hungry, this I swear
I may eat clean underwear

For it is not upon the list
Of foods, today that must be missed

So, think of me while you savor
Foods with texture and with flavor

And as you eat, I'll shed a tear
For all the food that I hold dear
