Oreo Cookies - July 7, 2000

Round careful centers
of white 
surrounded by dark layers
and I watched
the swirling
of the edge
against your tongue -
smoothing white cream
against dark chocolate.

Slowly twisting
one way
then another
as the separation
occurs,
there is a slight
pause
to watch
light and dark
part ways
once more.
