Suddendeath Poetry Challenge Chocolaty Words!

Tweet

Welcome to this weekend's Suddendeath poetry challenge, chocolaty words. Rules are as follows, write a poem in any style using the five words that I give you. (I had a good suggestion to ask people to bold those words for others to see, so if you want, go for it.). Write it in one sitting or in under an hour (only to quash your inner editor, rules are loose there). Add it here, OR link in a comment so we can enjoy each other’s. The words can be in any plurality or tense. Today’s words are: sweet, dark, bitter, eat, chips, (and indulge . Yes, that makes 6, you don’t have to use that last one, I couldn’t not toss it in). My entry is as follows: ---------------------------------------- Chocolate, Life, or Simply a Hand of Cards? Sweet the temptation, drawing attention. Dark the consequences, in its creation. Bitter the quandary, choices be weighed. Eating away at the options, decisions need made. Chips to be gambled, to win or to lose. Indulging or sacrifice, which will you choose?
