Changing world
...Changing world?
In Peru, they import potatoes
In Guatemala, they plant thousands of trees
drink cacao, sit in groups, and sing
think they are new agers
the new war in The Middle East began

Missed In The Chocolate Room Wonka Tribute

Cocoa tacos and cacao pizza,
fudge fries for sweet crème dipping;
I missed one! Forgive my amnesia;
A jello slide right into gumballs,
just be careful how you ride down;
Children are accos...

why?
...(a story in Senryus)
I can’t figure out
why everything doesn’t

Dichotomy
...My job is in the office,
My bread is in the kitchen,
Yet it haunts me as
My life I am losing.

not sugar-coated...

Milking It
...
While others give grief,
a chocolate milk cow
often stutters, and how!
In her udder relief,
she utters “ca-cow”
while producing cacao,
tells the nutters,
Ciao, ciao.
Not one to chew...

feasting on Jelly Bean Martinis,
