Chocolate Fixation

My mouth starts to water as

The waitress saunters

In my direction

My gaze fixated

On the plate

That looks like

An extension of her hand

I can see a little piece of

Chocolate heaven

Peeking over

As she draws closer

Finally

After what seems like an eternity

The culinary masterpiece is before me

I drink in its beauty.

The cut

Shows the brilliant confidence

Of the server

Knife in hand

Searching perfect dimensions

Chocolate

Gives bursts of scent

Pleasuring my senses 

Awakening longing in my taste buds 

I lift my fork

Knowing that with this instrument

I will wreak havoc 

I plunge into the soft layers

Drawing down chocolaty cheese layers,

Until I hit Oreo crust

Then with a flick of my wrist

This too

Is on my fork

I lift it

My tongue glistening

To my mouth

An explosion of taste occurs

Leaving my face with a smile
