Sugar

'For those who love bitterness...'

 

Sugar

 

Sugar, why to make you doubtful?

‘Am I not the least functional to

Wipe the bitterness?

 

‘No, not at all!’ replied the sugar.

 

Sugar, is that you on the onset to taste

My tongue sweet? Whole day follows.

With successive hours of diminishing sweetness —

 

I yell, shout, and cry

For being impatient and dry

Without feelings or finally retort.

 

I grew up on facts – sugary elements

Dissolve in blood

Fast enough than bitterness

 

All the wisdom is sugar

Wine, love, sleep, dream, and

Off course my uncontrolled lust!

 

Also, power, money, and lies…

 

Still people hate to taste

The bitterness

 

Albeit, the snake came to Eve to make her

Wise…‘once upon a time’.

This was such a perfect poem ! I totally adored this play and its structure. Isn't it all about sugaring the life?


I grew up on facts � sugary elementsDissolve in bloodFast enough than bitterness ----- I adored this stanza. There is such a succinct meaning in its ambiguity!

this was a medittion on a beautiful expression of sweetness and in its shadow the bitterness. Great job this one. My new favorite of yours.

I adore how you weave words into a poetic work of art. This piece invokes so much thought and reflection. Something that needs to be read and re-read to fully grasp its meaning.

This is certainly one to ponder.
I love the theme of it, but I have to wonder, are you really talking with sugar, or is this something much deeper? Hm? ^.~

Loved it!

Ooh, Raja... I liked this one... Such an aftertaste bitterness has... an acquired taste, yes?
