Russet Poem by Chester Maynes

Russet



What is the taste?
Those coated victuals
In caramel, in peanut butter
Those brown, rich, enabling syrupiness
I cannot defy but chomp
And munch, and masticate
Oh la la la, I must sing!
Those velvety stimuli of you
I must yearn for new
For extra, and get further
This hankering of my mouth
You must fill me
I must sing! I must sing!
