Choco-Mama Mania

Ooey, gooey, give me choc-o-lot! If I must, I'll take it liquid hot, But "wicked" like they fix it in Madrid, Thick as porridge, satin sunburnt sweet. (Not like here: sugar,milk and cocoa, mix and heat). Give me some hot chocolate I can eat! Drip-drop-dripping from a spoon! Give it - give it to me in a box. Tantalize my lips with luscious bits, Rum and amaretto morsels dipped. Give me it in chips or chunks or blocks. And please not those from K-mart or the grocer. We connoisseurs much prefer it kosher! Give it to me Swiss or straight from France. Hurry while I loosen up my pants! I'll make do with anything you have. Drizzled over ice-cream nice and smoothy. chocolate is the universal salve. chilled or warm, but slathered on it soothes me. Make my ice-cream chocolate flavored too- peanut butter swirls with fudge will do. Be my ever sweet-tooth choco-fairy. Finger-feed me bonbons. I'm your baby. Feed me plump and succulent black berry. Give me, give me, give me what I crave, and I shall be your love-starved-choco-slave. 10/5/13 When I wrote this, it just flowed to me, like chocolate water; usually I have to sit and think a bit and poetry often does not flow from me in this way!

I ate so much chocolate I thought I just may croak I spent all my money Now I'm sitting home broke I'm suffering from withdrawal My Prozac is all gone I have no one to turn to So I'm home all alone But wait, here's my neighbor To see if I'm okay If they get me some chocolate I'll make it through the day

I am so BAD! I bought a big bag of Hershey kisses the other day and decided I would eat half a dozen. YOu guessed it. I snarfed down the whole bag. Next day I felt like hell. Will this cure my chocolate mania. Nope! Good and tantalizing write, dear friend. Love, daver
