there’s no defence against it
not gonna sugarcoat every message
but in some kind of way
I’m pretty fond on sugar
so I have a jar full of it
and I take it to the streets
while wearing a leather coat
as in trenchcoat
when talking to strangers
I give them a free sample
but only if they are sweet too
because…. just so my day is great
no what if’s
and I hope that people will learn
from these little kind gestures
that they also can become
one of the many sweeties

I hope you like this poem, although the title is a bit strange during the time of events, at least it’s not ill willed
