i got you tangfastics

theres beauty in the bottle
the gummy bounce pull
the cola chew kindness that uncovers the wool
and as i pass the pack
to you and back
you've fished out all the cherries for me
they look like hopefully fizzy grand gestures


- or a saccharine blip -
in the dip and the flip
that encircles your connection to mine

easy
too sticky
-just fine-


yet if i had the time -
i'd teach you soliloquies
unattainable verse
i'd take each sweet
every smile
every feat
and dine inside sealed cellophane
with nothing but sugar to drown in
