Mankind seems a fraction lost
chasing truffles and treasures
through the sawdust of his mind.
Beating back wild hogs
in the backwaters of temptations
as emerald jacket croakers
play hide and seek
with cattails swaying back and forth
through their mossy incarnations.
Nobody cares to sacrifice amidst the briar
to walk in the steel toed heartache of another.
...nobody yearns to meet the silky eye of God
until they crack another wishbone
against the iron vein of a Capricorn sky.
What mankind didn't know
was that the wild hog horde
unearthed the truffles and treasures...
a lifetime and a half ago.
the dream drifting far away from heaven.
on a coal train destined toward hell.
In the aftermath
a trinity of violet butterflies
hovers over a pile of wild hog scat
beating to the throbbing of
what always was and
what could have been.

Cleanfill and cement
selected pigments of orange and blue
a stiff chilling sky blue hue
to create a scenic spektical
beauty
marks the walls a sight for
people to admire
perfection
and style Phor-Lustoreteaze
the sight of marveled perfection
the lavishness
and her beauty
makes grown men
crumble and fall
her smile and capitavtivness
make me more eager to call
guess I oughta
doll up for her
since she so pretty
and everything
I bought a watch in
dellrio
these diamonds go
with everything

Chocolate bonbons are fun to have and enjoy,
Fudge made tasty, flavors little taste buds in glee,
SEE’S Candies and Whitman’s Chocolates cheers the taster,
Belgium chocolates tasteful little morsels quickly flee.
Milk chocolate versus dark chocolate healthy alternative choice,
Wonderful concoctions from the beautiful seeds of the tree cacao,
Does not take a Very Large Array to hear yummy noises,
Pleasing chocolate truffles in this home bring a pow with a wow!
Hot fudge sundae complements Concord grapes for health,
People will limbo and footrace for winning the prize of Lady Godiva’s chocolate,
Oh, chocolates we enjoy delectable delicious delicacy
Yummy hearth of chocolate cake happily allow us with wit, to talk and walk a bit.

O! FLUFF! FIZZ! ICE-TRUFFLES and BANDALEES!
Can't see the forest, for the snow on trees!
Where every gossamer veil of snow delights
And every string of bulbs mimics Heav'n's Lights!
O! TRUE! the tales of gnomes and Ice-Elves are!
(I fear some fool will catch one in a jar
and so, I've held my Peace on this -- so far)
But NOW, I must speak out, you see... on par
With Ancient Wisdom are the Fairy Stories,
Chuck full of Angels, dwarves... filled with the Glories
Of... Champions, Magicians of Renown...
Of tiny folk, who live in Tinytown…
Of Reprimands for those who trouble Nature
(Or use JUST Scientific Nomenclature).
REBUKE! O, WISE! The Unbelievers, ALL!
Who LAUGH at gnolls and trolls, both great, and small!
For He that trusts not, sews with poison thread,
That knots Hope; leaves Imagination dead.

It really was quite a kerfuffle
And a series of violent scuffles
I kept wrestling a pig
But he grew much too big
So instead we went searching for truffles

The chocolate mixes with the cream
Waiting for it to fill all of me
I pause, in hesitation,
for i know i am not clean
He ask if i am sure,
I say yes,fore i know
the good scrubbing I am
in for
The smell is astounding
My heart is pounding
My self self esteem is drowning
I know i am worth more
but i cannot resist being your
truffle butter whore

Chocolate brown, with smoldering bronze eyes.
A faithful companion, and a dog in disguise.
Half chocolate lab, and half red pit bull.
Calm as can be when we're having a staring duel.
The only dog I know, who falls asleep standing up.
She's been this way ever since she was a new born pup.
She'll sit in your lap like she weighs a mere five pounds.
Believe me, its just as funny to picture as it sounds.
We treat her like a part of the family, and not at all like a dog.
She's overweight, so good luck getting her to go for that healthy jog.
I wouldn't trade her for all the money in the world!
She'll always be my precious angel, my baby girl.
*Note* Truffles are my FAVORITE candy and we got our puppy right before Valentines day, so
being as she's half "chocolate" lab, eh why not name her "Truffles", so yes I know we are
strange, LOL!!!!
