Chewing Gum

at downtown DigInn

Just as time floats in a siesta,
Your life may pass by
Like a bubble gum gulped
Without chewing it once.

 

Chew it.
Grind it, throw it around, and stretch
As far as you dare to. You’ve got
One chance.

When the juice is out
And your jaw’s hurting much

Balloon a bubble so wide
You might even have seen it
In your dreams.

And then chew it again.
