Sometimes I don’t understand
how people can just transform from a teddy bear
to a Grizzly in a
blink of an eye, or how the world you know
can dissolve before you take a single step,
But what really confuses me,
More than anything, really
Is how someone would decide that they
Want the everlasting taste of
Rust, dirt, and grime to rot on their tongue,
When they could easily coat their teeth
with words seasoned in
Sugar, spice, and honey
