That last line was a killer, like, my heart kind of sunk with it. There's something about building the verse on such a loose premise with such casual wording then ending it on a line like that, without breaking voice but while putting that downer note on it and not ending on what had been perceived as the end rhyme.
Otherwise, there were a lot of rhymes. The "sticky" part worked because again it was all a non-traditional setup for the last line. Obviously the content was thin. But I liked this verse.
