poem = """Chocolate
Chocolate is the first luxury.
It has so many things wrapped up in it:
Deliciousness in the moment,
childhood memories,
and that grin-inducing
feeling of getting a reward for being good.
--Mariska Hargitay"""

Working with Text Files

Here's the text to store in the text file called chocolate.txt. You can use Notepad or TextEdit to do that. Make sure you use ".txt" as the extension, and select "plain text" or "plain ASCII" as the format.

Strength is the capacity to break

a Hershey bar into four pieces

with your bare hands - and then

eat just one of the pieces.

—Judith Viorst
