Death to Chocolate

Die -
sticky sweet brown fingers
that leave prints on the keyboard

Perish -

fructose laden haven.

You have ravaged my self control

evilly enslaving me over the batter bowl
laden with brownie mix or cookie dough.

You're addictive -no doubt -

but what you "add" one can do without!

My taste-buds mourn your absence

so my waistline might celebrate.

Because when the pleasure of cocoa is gone

It's trace lingers ever round me.
