The future of gum.

The future of good gum is Galaxy,
a gum that makes your skin as smooth as silk.
Like stars will thine complexion shine for thee,
much as when Cleopatra bathed in milk.

A little piece of gum in packs of five;
one modest piece to start a brand new day.
And as you chew, the skin becomes alive;
(perhaps of product of the Milky Way.)

The flavor will be gum extant delight;
fine nutrients from gum will enter in.
‘Twill be like novae in a starry night;
the bright of burst will shine upon the skin.

  Galactic gum to wit so apropos;
  the chew will also cause an inner glow.
