Ingredients
Baking alone
is a Holy Affair.
When it's just you and the ingredients (none of which
Are very much on their own) so you
Put them together and
End up with something
Delicious
And the parts of you that are
Bitter. Sickly sweet and sappy;
Too dry,
Too wet.
So very breakable.
Too small, too much.
Also make up something
Fantastic.
