The sizzle of popping candy,

A thousand electric eels

The bubbles in my cola,

Pebbles crunching under heels

The crackling of breakfast cereals

Popping cinders on the fire

Kernels dancing in the saucepan

Volts surging through the wire

The fizzing, swimming bath-bomb,

The wind stirring the trees

The satiating burst of bubble wrap

The rustle of autumn leaves

The pulsing of the rhythm,

A glorious sonic boom.

The rush of sweet MDMA,

The beat of a hardcore tune

The whooshing of the rocket

The standing still of time

That electrifying moment

You first touched your lips with mine.
