baker
As sweet as a pastry
that is plastered
Up for sale
Looking all pretty
Till you take a bite
What I can remember
the taste of spite
Pride and anger filling
Sprinkles to cover up the
Imperfections
I didn’t mind that you
Were not complete
I liked your charm
But I couldn’t handle the
Bittersweet surprises in each bite
I took
It was to much
The dough didn’t fully cook
I blame your baker
