I'm currently focusing on a larger project, so here's a poem instead of a short story, an ode to my very favorite bedtime snack.


Open book on my lap, hot tea,

Chocolate muffin.

Cocoa, flax flour, and sweetener—see?

Chocolate muffin.

 

Powdered cocoa: two tablespoons

One of flax flour, but no, no prunes.

Some baking powder and some salt

You figure out when you should halt.

Heat at 350; grease those cups!

The perfect treat for every night.

Eases hormonal rages.

A recipe for the ages

Also of Truvia one tablespoon

I forgot it; I’m a loon
