Apart from verses 4 and 6 which are a little lighweight, this really packs a lot of stuff into its lines.
A little long, and the end almost collapses into politikspeak. Good through - the first verse is my favourite.

Certainly fits the title.
A title's the least of your worries, I'm afraid.
Like Dots, the chewing never ends.

You could really improve this piece I think. You've drawn the outlines and lightly colored the edges...
Give your creation some spicin electric life-colors from the psychedelic rainbow, would ya? Please?

I like the poem.. but not the linebreaks.. Might I suggest linebreaking it this way?:

Nowhere but now
here with these last few hours
and this setting sun
by the drinking trees
soaking the breath and
the minutes like water
for life falling and failing
these summer-soft moments
throwing us back to the grass-bed
holding on where we know we will
never be again
with dew drops growing beside
and beneath the forms we have sunk
into the bent-sole grass for these last few
failing hours.

Blessed with eight.

In terms of a title - find a theme in the poem, or write a startling image. That could be used as the title.
Too many pop cliches
- to you... you do
- crazy in love -
- love is real -
- laidback style - so naff it would appear in a blue song.
cryptic, clever, technically proficient and accomplished. Great
Good, short lines are always difficult as the break should serve a purpose.
