Poetry: Chocolate

by Jon Coe

Created on: May 17, 2008

Milk, dark, white, make a wish
English, Belgian, German, Swiss
Sugar free, melted, in a block
cherry, strawberry, mint after eight o' clock

Love burning, turning in my tummy
chemicals of chocolate can be funny
Racing, slowing, heart palpitation
wrapped in silver paper salutation

Grab a bar from the store
box of chocolates, have some more
Macadamia, almonds, hazel nut
chocolate covered raisins in my gut

Yummy, yummy friend of mine
let me eat you, let me dine
Chocolate caked between my teeth
dentist waiting, with a wreath

I don't care, I love my vice
once a day, or even thrice
Chocolate makes my life worth living
stops at nothing, my misgiving
