visceral

Of, or relating to the viscera - the soft inner organs of the body, including the lungs, the heart, and the organs of the digestive, excretory, and reproductive systems.

The first time Michael saw a partially dissected cadaver upon the table, its visceral nature opened for all to see, he knew there was no way that he could be a doctor - he would have to change his career goals.

bung

Differs slightly in meaning from the process of sealing a wine cask with a cork; it means not only to seal, but to bind, or constrain something, as well. The term "bungee cord" derives from this particular sense of the word.

When you remove the bung from a winecask on its side, or loose the bungee cords from an unstable load, things tend to "surge forth" explosively, in an uncontrolled manner. Thus did the late American poet e.e. cummings describe the passion of Picasso's art:

out of the
black unbunged
Something gushes vaguely

-e.e. cummings, "Picasso"

half and half

A cheap brand of "all-purpose" smoking tobacco - one of the earliest packaged, branded pipe tobaccos in the U.S. - with the slogan "a cargo of contentment in the bowl of any pipe." A long-standing joke involving the product's name asserts that it is named "half and half" because it is comprised of "half horseshit and half bullshit" (in reality, the mixture is half "bright" and half "burley" tobaccos). Some old-timers speculate that the half and half joke may have given rise to the novelty "horseshit cigarettes" sold in the U.S. in the 1920s-30s (not real horseshit), which featured the slogans "not a fart in a carload," and "try one, you mooching bastard."

Half and half is still sold at most retail outlets carrying tobacco products.

"Cargo of contentment," my piles - half and half is harsh and bitter.
