[Poetry] I Want MORE Sugar

My friend, what is life without some sweetness?
I love sugar, a bit more than most of my friends;
I love sugar, a bit more than the society I live in;
I want sugar, for I don’t wanna live a bitter life;
I love sugar, and a little MORE sugar causes no harm;
Gulping in sugar since a kid, I don’t want a sugarless life.

Sugar is what makes life worth living for me;
Sugar is quite cheap here as far as I know;
Yet why people are so tight-fisted about it, I dunno.
That every time I hop into some café and order coffee;
I have to shout ‘I Want MORE sugar’;
And they give me the kind of look as if I am an alien!

If only people worried as much about poverty;
If only people cared so much about social bias;
If only people cared so much about peace;
If only people cared so much as to help one in need;
As they care about giving a little MORE sugar;
How sweet this world would be indeed!
