Writing Resources from Fifteen Minutes of Fiction

The following is a piece of writing submitted by Rabbit Stu on January 26, 2008
"This is kind of silly, but this week I was thinking that the FMOF site has been pretty slow (not a lot of new stuff posted) and the phrase that went through my mind was "slower than molasses".
So when I started this poem out my intent was, it was going to be a poem bemoaning how slow the site is this week, but as you can see, it changed direction. :)"

Ode to Molasses
This week I was thinking of sweet, thick molasses,With flavor and texture that nothing surpasses,
Enjoyed to its fullest by both lads and lasses,
And tasty enough to be used by the masses.
I challenge you now to find food that surpasses;
Not steak, not chicken, neither halibuts nor basses.
If you gave me the chance I'd chug down ten glasses -
Though then I'd be filled with alacks! and alases!
For as every good vet will learn in their classes:
Any horse that binges on grain and molasses
Always passes
Gases.
