Black and Blue

Ummmm, black and blue;
Delicious!
Blueberry cheesecake on a platter
Of chocolate syrup.
Nip of pillowed cream cheese
and tart blueberry
a semi-sweet wave of
chocolate river flowing through your palate;
how they glide across tongue and over
teeth-stones…
Miraculous ecstasy!
To succumb to such a powerful beast
Is like the victim sailor to the siren’s song.
Some sins are worth it all.

this is NOTHING like I expected. I was thinking it would be about bruises or something. BUT I LOVE that it is about this marvelous dessert. Best way to view black and blue!!!
