Brain Cookies



While baking cookies in the oven of my mind,
Out popped a batch of ideas sprinkled with brown sugar and pecans.
The inception morsels were so tasty that I felt
Compelled to pass them out at the corner market.

They were sampled and shared by all manner of folk.
Some asked for seconds with smiles of surprise,
While a few sputtered and choked on these bite sized tidbits.
Apparently, my imagination confections are subject to debate.
