Stuck On You

I'm a wad of gum, Waiting patiently You're my lowly victim, So unsuspectingly! All gooey on a sidewalk, Diggin' your classy shoes A sticky treat is lurking, And you don't have a clue! I can see your sole, I even know your size SQUISH! I finally got you, My, what a sweet surprise! I'm laughing as you curse, Then scurry to the grass Strings of sticky chaos, Is now a pesky mass! Scrape your gummy shoe, Along that rugged curb Have I gotten to you? Your face looks quite disturbed! Remove that soily heel, Submit to your defeat You look like Captain Ahab, While limping down the street!

Your poem is fun and whimsical. I like point of views that are "out of the box".
