Sweet Weapon
Inspired by the graphic in TimEros' "Saul's Prayer"
with an affinity to Dr. Seuss
It can find you in the night,
when there is no light.
It can find you by the ocean,
if it takes a notion,
It can find you in the forest,
in a peaceful rest.
It can find you in a dress,
or a little less.
It can find you on the street,
at a place you like to eat.
It can find you when you're looking,
especially if you're cooking.
It don't care about your color,
heritage or any other.
It don't care if you're thin or fat,
as a matter of fact it's blind as a bat.
It has been here from the start,
every since we've had a heart.
It will always exist,
but it's always at risk
It has only one way to be spared,
like it or not, it has to be shared.
No, no, no, it is not a disease,
so don't even go there, if you please.
I will give you only one small hint,
from a sweet weapon, it was sent.
