Cockroach sweetness

I should have known-
I should have guessed -that the sweetness was the rot.
Too many mysterious trails of sugar
crisscrossing my path _sticking to my soles
Too much sugar around
The drains were clogging from it- that evil white gooey mess.
I didn't see at first as I see now _the cockroach in you was at party in my house.

This reminded me. People can be sneaky and creep up on you, whilst pretending to be sickly sweet; using a false trail of sugar treats (or promises?) to try and trick you. And, that we need to look deeper than the surface; before accepting what looks sugary - might actually be the real deal...

Oo gosh that sounds like an awe full mess
Send him away
To anyone who you hate
Then sit and wait for a tidier man
