No More Candy

We become indiscreet
Eating sweet after sweet,
Though we know all too well where that may lead.
So this box was designed
With the two of us in mind
As the kind of reminder we need.
When you raise the lid, the music plays
Like a disapproving nod.
And it sings in your ear:
«No more candy, my dear!»
In a way, it’s a little like the voice of God.
Thank you, madam
Please call again
Do call again
Madam
