White Sugar

Angelika Teuber

bleached, stripped naked,
one-dimensional sweetness
valuable minerals, trace elements
removed
taste spectrum reduced
once processed you are
the waste
product
the extracted goodness used for more
profitable pleasures
you are bland, unhealthy,
unbalanced,
yet leaving me
wanting for more

like his love
