Ode To A Chip
It makes me salivate
those golden
crusty
morsels
on a plate
like golden embers
shiny
glistening
basted pleasure
remembered
carbo-licious
tasty treats
like
sticks of
fatty dynamite
crunch crunch
scoff scoff
the pig persona
plays a
Bacchanalian lunch
A chip! A chip!
My round plate
For a Chip!

Should the rhyming be 1and 5?
If so why does it not occur in the last stanzas of this frivolous write?

I thinks she's alluding to
" a horse, a horse, my kingdom for a horse!"

because...
I'd got enough devices in there to stand out..It's freeform...so it can do what it likes.....and frankly, was too busy eating the chips! :)))

sorry about interupting
with my interjection to frenchf. And so embarrasing if I'm wrong!
a fun piece, who doesn't like chips,. I'm american, we call them "french fries".... .........shortened these days to just "fries"
why bother to critique...fun just happens, it was fun. enough said

Hey...no problem
Thanks...yes...it alludes to Henry V...there are days when i'd give my worldly possessions up for some comfort hip-hugging chips (fries)!

Don't care what the rhyming is like first or last, an ode to the mighty Chip, other people throughout the world may call them by other names but they will still be as beautiful to me, a chip off the old block La La..
