the gum is grape berry.
non-specified berry.
grape is nowhere to be found these days.
I buy grape berry anyway.
shouldn't be consuming refined sugar.
the gum is soft and immediately pliable.
acidic preservatives wreak havoc on my cankers.
bought Listerine 2 days late this time.
I make small snapping noises to prove to myself I still remember how.
reminds me of watching fireworks this year.
I was high, and wearing Shane's 3D glasses.
we sat on the swingset.
I had no urge to go so high I'd flip over the bar.
me circa 1984 didn't want it to turn out this way.
Suzie has brown hair now, and a boyfriend.
the wind, full of grit, whips my face in blazing bus stop sun.
having disinterested me, out goes grape berry.
wonder which color of toenail polish will interest me tonight.
