Chocolate

Does  not need to be neither

whether dark,

milky, brown or white

they all are pleasant

like

smooth footsteps upon the tongue

plush / sweet :

                      puppy-love puddin'

the way it melts

like a velvet quilt down the throat

palate-warm

like a dolphin's skin / swimming

and then...

spider legs / goose-flesh

after such a chess game - consumption

all the while,

chin, cheer

ear-to-ear 

smile

no nuts /  caramel / nougat

but just a valentine piece

of a pure promise

a pip / of inner profanity

a lift from life's lemon-sanity

a silent orgasm in the lungs

smooth footsteps upon the tongue...
