I line your grin in tidy rows, but when you eat, I sometimes stow a bit of lunch I won’t release, a stubborn guest with zero peace.

I scoop, I stab, I enter your gab; a hybrid creation that brings satiation.

At night I'm in your garden, or sneaking through the street. It's best you don't surprise me if ever we should meet. I may look unassuming when at first you cross my path, but if you don't take heed you're gonna need to take a bath.

I show up uninvited, a jumpy little pest, I bounce in your belly and give your lungs no rest. You hold your breath, you drink, try a fright, but I’ll bounce your diaphragm again just out of spite!

You may clip me so I don’t scrape. Even use me to cut tape If I’m not treated I’ll grow long. Longer then we’ve waited for silksong Some may snack and eat me. Dirt lives in here rent free
