#gum
it smelled of mint and hope,
she unwrapped and gasped
“could it be? all I dreamed?”
And so it was
Hey, I kinda like you
It may be elementary
but my god, london, did I nearly cry
I wish I had reacted
instead I hid and lied
So tomorrow I will send one back
a watermelon scent
I hope you receive this message well:
Hey, I kinda like you too
<3

you put me in your mouth because you loved my flavor
but once you've had it too much it got boring
you picked a new flavor
and spit me out

What the f am I doing here
Where is my role
They just got you
About
No one letting you write
A themer and a fing
I am a fing
Like some creature
Maybe even proportionate to
A blue lagoon
I eat
Preferably frozen eggs
Human eggs frozen
Unfertilized poached
Some inseminated are squishier
Than normal frozen ones
Well in twos
They come in twos
So you eat two at a time
Well
I can’t just halve one too
Where is my service cat
She is a great thing
A melanistic fing
we are
Naught superstitious
Enough
she black Chirens at krima time
All opening the same gifts.
To even eat our baby
I… well
Wonder what taste I’ll have
Left in my mouth
Then two cursors
Right next to each other
Some kind of mutantcy
Tapping a whyte
Blank computer screen
Anyways
Frozen eggs
Don’t eat to too too too many.
They are not that nutritious
I do not know what they want
Its upwards of theming a quickening
Of
Well
Up to
free money for eating
some more frozen egg.
When you hit the
Crossroads literally
Just before conception
Literal conception
Did you go left or right
*****
Republican or Democrat?

We're two different people,
But in similar ways.
We both like chewing gum,
A pack in our pocket at all times.
But mine's watermelon,
Yours is nicotine.

Shifting under my skin,
seeping into my gums,
a sensation of emence pressure,
and awareness to unbear.
Slouching with a blue bib chain,
hung around the neck,
and heavy floride notes
tickling my tounge.
Goggles sliding along my face,
Sweat rolling down wet strands of hair.
Pulling away like velcro strips,
the sound of eagerness
and hot summer swelter.
That office chair makes me shake with anticipation,
Spotlight in yellow hues,
beaming down upon me.
Staring off until team appears
and the numbness fades in.
Time for another change.
For inconvienient, expensive exposure
with a little bit of me set to be disposed.

No doubt.
The piece of gum
Naughtily stuck under a school desk
Instead of thrown in the dustbin
They say smoking's a disgusting habit
But gum is messy
Gets everywhere if you
Aren't careful
Nicotine gum?
The bane of smokers
They say it tastes
Foul
But gum
Either way
Comes in all varieties
Sugarfree I favour
Bad for the teeth
Otherwise -
Raspberry, strawberry, mint, spearmint
The never-ending flavours of life
On this planet

-Hume gum iss baat ka nahi ki hum teri zindagi mein nahi hai
-Hume gum iss baat ka nahi ki hum teri zindagi mein nahi hai
-Hume toh gum iss baat ka hai ki jise tune chuna voh tere kaabil nahi hai

An old horse smiles behind my mouth.
Scars of time hang from its gums.
Physical renditions of the ticking hand,
Going around the sun,
Beating down,
Weighing down.

around again.

my broken self respect.

i’m a flytrap in Saran Wrap
Definition clingy
shouldn’t be satisfied to be qualified
as the gum that’s stuck to your shoe
This anxiety could be all from nowhere
It might not be real
But honestly and actually
it’s just how i feel

i'm feeling dead
my heart's full of dread
my body aches
my hands shake
my mind's numb
i'll just keep chewing my gum
to stay attached
to this world that's come
and torn me apart

Stepped on, squandered, smashed.
Thrown, trampled, trashed.
Everyone passing you by,
Not wanting to look you in the eye.
They think you're ugly,
Glancing at you smugly.
What they don't know,
Is that you bestow
A beauty they can't even comprehend.
For I think you set a trend.
A trend of great love and beauty,
Who's splattered cement still smells fruity.
They'll never know you like I do,
So let's bid them all Adieu.

I am walking in the park
After a night of empty talk -
Looking for something beautiful,
I find myself reaching down
Taking from my pocket a piece of gum.
Now, I am actually chewing God -
I’ve taken him from the trees,
I’ve stripped him from the fields,
And I haven’t even tried
To look for him in town -
Why bother?
I've got him in my mouth.
Compact and easy to manage,
At worst he might get stuck
To the outside of my lips:
So what?
It's a small price to pay,
For the luxury of compacting all divinity
Into a single pointless blob.
Once, he breathed life into the world,
Now he breathes minty freshness
Up my nostrils:
What's the difference?
He was, at first, the nonsense of the universe;
Now he is the nonsense
That I ****** with my tongue,
For no particular reason -
Same thing.
I often imagine a little face
On his lumpy plastic body,
Whining petulantly
As I chew him with irrational force -
And I find this very funny!
But then I think:
Perhaps he does not mind
How hard I squeeze,
Because really he is sad
That his real home is, you know,
Everywhere,
And instead he's getting chewed,
Whilst I’m laughing at a piece of goo,
When I should be laughing at the world.
Now I'm not laughing
At my gum anymore.
Instead,
I've cast him out,
To this open graveyard on the floor -
And his epitaph reads:
'I was only ever paste'
And he becomes another God
Who I have no desire to taste.

Barsat ki Ek raat dil ne dimag se pucha, jo Badal raha wo 'waqt' hai?
waqt to Aaj bhi waisa he hai bachpan me jaisa hota tha wohi savera wahi sham Or baki cheeje tamam
Par tab naa bhigne se lagta tha darr or naa sardi jukam,
or wo pani ki shrarate tamam
Jinki Yaad bhar se aa jati hai hothon pe muskan
par ab aisa kya hua jivan ki iss Dagar me
kahan bhatak gaya in jhuthe rit riwazo me
Kaise jivan ke Arth badalte gaye
Kyo ek funny poem likhne wale
Emotional likhne pe majboor ** gaye
Hawa k jharoko se kashti hilti gayi
waqt k sath mein tau badlta gaya
aur yeh zindagi chalti rahi
pal pal nayi hasratein
har pal naye khwab bunti gayi
aur yeh zindagi chalti gayi
raah mein manzar tau bahut aaye
bulate rahe mujhe mere saaye
mein tau ek pal ko ruk sa gaya
par yeh zindagi chalti gayi
yaadon k saaye mein zinda *** abhi
lagta hai tham sa gay *** mein kahin
par zindagi bewafa sanam si nikli
mein tau ruka reh gaya aur yeh chalti gayi
jindagi har pal apne arth badalti rahi
ham hanste rahe chahhe rote rahe
par woh apni rafataar se bas behati rahi
kabhi ban ke sawal ,kabhi ban ke utar
woh hame har mod per milti rahi
ham tutate rahe, bikharate rahe
fir khud hi gir ke sambhalte rahe
aur jindagi yun hi jalti bhujhati rahi
gum mile kuch is tarah ki gum hi gum na lage
khushiyuon ki baat bhi hame gum ban ke milti rahi
kya kare kisi se shikva, kya kare kisi se shikayat
apne hi jab todate rahe......
toh saans meri har pal ghutati rahi
bas jindagi yuh hi chalti rahi
har pal apne arth badalati rahi

you came back
but i guess
my taste changed

bubble gum died Sunday of strokes at his home ,
The pink bubble gum ...
had a tiny comic strip
Little children wanted to read the comic.
in an adulterous liaison
and is born homely and with green skin.
under the hawkish gaze
in retro pastel uncool-they’re-cool-again cans,
a big splash with a peppy
emoji-like smiles on the side and some polka dots
oh oh oh oh oh oh thus liked
consumers should felt free
... to be relentlessly
Has almost no bite.” “Full-bodied.
This tastes like a Twizzler...
“Sharper bubble feel.”
acrolein, acrylamide, acrylonitrile,
crotonaldehyde and propylene,
flavorturned into a huge mess like 'unicorn poop'
and bubble gum."
oh oh oh oh oh oh thus liked
“All those teenagers was twerk,
take selfies and curse up a storm. …”
oh oh oh oh oh oh thus liked
...turned into a huge mess

Have you ever reached
beneath the underneath
of a desk or table?
as you reached,
underneath
the lush wooden maple
Find no treat you'd like to keep
Nor gift you'd want to have
Nothing good,
I wouldn't encourage
one reach or grab.
Gum is there to meet your thumb
soaked in germs and goo
residue left mocking you
smells of grandpa's chew
May my learning be your warning
not to reach nor grab
beneath the underneaths
of a gummy trap
