ALL CHOCOLATE IS CHOCULA

all chocolate is Chocula —

it seduces with its riches,

wraps your desire in the cape

of your mouth, and invites

the sink of teeth. we never bite

gently; we always suck it

to vapor, feeding on its potency

until we are left only with the empty

pang for more and more and more.

we are undead with diabetes,

obese with our obsession,

unquietly unquenched

while we dwell upon

the mortality of the melt.
