Fruit Leather
Fruit Leather
orifices nibble
jaw nodes masticate
succulence expels
and froths it up
as ambrosic juices drench
complex mystification
conforming structurally
onto lips
buoyantly
lick, twist, braid and weave
tongue
around fruity moist
leather candy

uncle freddie ( all my ferret relatives are named uncle freddie, even my aunts ) cooked a meal which had the consistency of shoe leather.. now, i know this has nothing to do with your candy or fruited leather, although the idea struck me when i saw your subject matter… anyway, the housekeeper who wears a french maid’s outfit around uncle freddie’s house looked at me, and i looked at her, and in a moment our eyes met… there was no smile, no head nod, no. it was simply a meeting of the eyes, that a dilema had arisen here… were we to attempt to eat the shoe leather, or not? we couldn’t both come up with an excuse, that would be more lame than the football Giants simultaneously faking an injury… in a pure moment of genius, i tapped my mini GI Joe headset bluetooth, feigned an important call from overseas, stoop up, and quickly exited, wiggling out of my uncle freddie’s burrow to leave the hot housekeeper in the skimpy outfit to deal with the marinated hockey puck…
sometimes, i admit, i take the easy way out….

Yummy and you even included a recipe. How fun! Thank you Bat-Ami.
Excellent–you did a wonderful job on this. My kids used to love that stuff!
Very interesting…
Love it…thanks so much for sharing!
You have tempted me… a luscious piece. Thank you!
lick-twist-braid-weave was my fav. fun:)
ok sitting asside the picture…there is a certain eroticism to this piece…of course that happens with food sometimes too but i am just saying….
Would have thought that way too except the imagery of leather I think rough, dry, cracked 🙂
well, u got me. it was originally a very erotic pieces, and i changed it into a food piece, because that’s what was required.
oh my god this sounds delicious…and i agree with brian..smiles
Nice piece – I’ve never eaten a fruit leather but now I want to lol!
Reminds me of fruit rollups, nice poem.
Written with / lip smacking delectability (yummy!!)TY Tammy, for your versatile brilliance.
woohoo! i was right…hehe…
Nice job on Victoria’s Challenge. Enjoyed! 😉
Very well done now i`m hungury..or

I’ve never heard of that unless it’s what we call toffee, sounds delicious anyway. I agree with Brian, very sensual undertones too 🙂
Undercurrent of deliciousness and what comes next. K.
Yummy… sounds delicious… 🙂
Never heard of leather candy. You make it sound so delicious I will have to check out the recipe.
HA…I just saw someone cooking with “banana leather’…this requires some more chewing
Peace
I love it too. Makes me feel like Chaplin in Gold Rush, but sweeter!
So juicy and tempting. What an undercurrent.
well i am hungry now…i like fruit too…will take it over chocolate any day so you got my mouth watering….
You had me salivating.
