Sugar plantation

White slaves to the sweetest recipes
a tacky legacy of devoured calories  
savory tooth snack always refused  
bad day choccy bites selfishly consumed  
puddings always so well deserved  
 nightmare kitchen walks observed  
the diabetic needle and the pill awaits  
the struggles to loose that weight  
feet stuck in the syrup of bad taste  
so shacked to the cane and beet  
the Kcal warnings never bleep  
tread the mine field of carefree obesity
the hidden you that you will never see  
the explosion of good intentions fled  
the  weighing scales that always lied  
a sweet moment on the lips  
your life that the condition strips  
a managed chaos, blind eclipse  
dentures smiling from the glass  
mountainous sugar like Everest  
to eat it all is that your quest  
is your empathy with me and sympathy less  
those grains refined and us enslave  
to spoon to soon us to our graves
