Stuck In between

Don't you hate it when gum gets stuck on your shoe?
That you can just be walking along, when all of a sudden something pulls you back, and for a second you are at a standstill. Then you have to twist and turn, and wriggle yourself free, but still that little piece remains.
Don't you hate it when gum gets stuck on your shoe?

But how do you think the gum feels?

Discarded at the loss of flavor.
Left to rot in the street.

Then suddenly pulled in two directions.
Stuck perfectly in between.


Then it is forced this way and that,
desired to be disposed of once again.
Then violently ripped apart.


Don't you hate it when gum gets stuck on your shoe?

Don't you think it's worse for the gum than it is for you?
