‘One more bite’
‘Toxic sweet’
She’s spun from sugar, pink as a wink,
a gumdrop girl who melts on cue.
“Another bite?” the world coos, and she
opens wide soft, compliant, such a chew.
Frosting smiles glaze her hollow core;
each “yes” a cherry, candied lie.
Too many bites and teeth dissolve,
leaving cavities where “no” should hide.
Sweet girl, darling overdose,
you’re not a treat, you’re tooth decay.
One more bite of borrowed nice
and even honey starts to ache
Metaphor: Don’t be too sweet, or the world will keep taking bites until there’s nothing left of you.
