soda pop

i used to drink a lot
of carbonated
colored sugar water
fizzy drinks.
coke,
pepsi, fresca.
nine spoons of sugar
down the hatch.
the big gulp size.
they went well with
hamburgers and fries.
potato chips.
then when my pants
got too tight i went to
the diet drinks.
but between the headaches
and sweating
a glue like substance,
i finally stopped.
sugar is in everything.
the evil out there
can be just one can
of soda pop.
