Licorice ice cream on your breath
Green-tinged gray, like a lipstick smear
Vanilla, chocolate and strawberry

Grace my tongue and put me in debt
Anise lips make me cry uncle
Your cool kiss renders me jungled!
Would you ruin my new cashmere?
Your sweet mudface is mother's grief
Forget the napkin, use my sleeve!
With bananas, goop and a cherry
It performs well in its capacity
But let's embrace our own diversity!
