A Biblical Lament to Chocolate

By Tadakimacun

O sweet nectar of the cocoa bean,
Euphoric extract that is Hershey's best seller,
My body enslaves me with crimson chains.
The monthly tide consumes me.

The "Red Sea" will part with time,
But harpooning the three-letter-shark would be wondrous.
O, that your ambrosial sweetness
Could take me to happy heights!

I give thanks to M&M's and Snickers,
To Nestle, and Ferrero Rocher.

    Could be possible that without chocolate the violence rates against men would increase. Maybe a PMS contest write is in order!

    'PMS' is a myth......women have a long history of being brutally oppressed by men.....violence with vengeance is written in our DNA... no free lunches in this world:*)

    Meh...I thought it was hilarious back when I first wrote it for a high school assignment. Probably because I lived for seeing guys' grossed-out expressions back then.
