The sensual act of chewing, the voluptuous warmth of rebelling saliva, the artificial and secretly aseptic fragrance which spreads from the mouth as a promise and missed kiss. The synthetic fleshliness of the pink color, the obsessive square shape of the product unwrapped and ready to be shred to pieces by the power of the tongue, all compete in crashing on the senses.

Wow.

Just don't swallow it.

Doesn't look like he necessarily chews it first.

I eschew this kind of art because excessive mastication causes blindness.

^ The sound of art conservators worldwide, upon realizing that they should have taken that "Bubble Gum 101" conservation class undergrad, at Yale.
