As always, the next installment of The Blue Dog Journal is imminent. While we wait and see in which direction the narrative will next take me, I offer this selection of poetry from part II, chapter seven. As true readers will recollect, the following piece, O Chocolate! My Chocolate, was written by Ginny and appeared in The Broken Heart Review.
O Chocolate! My Chocolate
When I was
young
you were the only
one
to kiss my
lips
and tickle my
tongue.
Now I’m older,
my body has
changed,
and things can
never
be the
same.
I used to love
your bars and
chips
but you broke my
heart
and went straight to my
hips.
