Prometheus, the joker, he offered Zeus a choice of tributes: An egg, a chocolate covered With foil, the delicious covered With the inedible or Chicken wings; perhaps they were ribs, The unpalatable concealed Within the gratifying and Delectable. And, when given the same choice, I Choose the charming, the beguiling, The delightful exterior, With unappealing core, rather Than attempt to find that nugget, Hidden within its thin veneer And certainly worth the effort. I find lusciousness is much more Pleasurable.
