I came across a cookie plate at an event that i was leaving

but perfect specks of dark round flecks can sometimes be deceiving

it’s a freak event i’ve come to fear as a chocolate chasing bitch

An ever-so-coy marketing ploy that is the bait and switch.

i sat there with my marred baked good - its fruit had now been warmed

And thought of this deception, and others it had harmed

Let’s acknowledge the occurrence, where interests have been flipped:

Some reach for oatmeal raisin, and end up chocolate-chipped
