Yeah, those stale chocolate candies you sometimes get at the movie theaters can be a BEAR to chew and swallow. It's always advisable to have a very large soda pop to wash it down. Besides, popcorn is pretty salty too, and when eaten in conjunction with those chewy chocolates, it can spell disaster without something to drink!

I love Forest Gump. It's one of my favorite(non-horror) films of all-time!

Good luck to you in the booth. ~Dean :}

This certainly captures the feeling of the movie, in very precise, concise language. Good job!

The accompanying picture is the perfect addition.
I'm not sure about the title of this work - it seems to indicate a more humorous poem, something ironic or sarcastic. Other than that, though, I can find no areas to improve on!

Thank you Sam for reading and reviewing this poem . It is meant to be a little 'tongue in cheek' and a bit of a play on words, not a serious review I thought I would try something a bit different . so Cheers again

I like your take on Forest Gump, the use of the chocolates is priceless. Is there a preferred centre to choke on? Best wishes for the contest.
Bless you

Forest gump and chocolates are synonymn the one refer to the other. Creating lumps in the throat as one chokes on the chocolates. A great 5-7-5 poem

Thanks Sandra I thought I would utilize both sentiments as Forest is a bit of a tear jerker and one could choke watching it lol Cheers for you time and great review

Nice tongue-in-cheek twist with the "chocking" and chocolate references. The story is full of pathos (lump in throat) and the chocolate reference still resonates in our culture. Fun review.
