Baking Poetry

I tried baking poetry today

I took a mixing bowl and gently let

1 cup of words

4 eggs of imagination

250 ml of milky passion

1/2 teaspoon of rhetoric

1 drop of witty essence

I whisked the mixture 

Until all the ingredients blended together 

I poured the entire mixture onto a sheet of parchment paper

And left it at room temperature

And while it’s settling down and taking form,

I crossed my fingers

And prayed to the muses that it won’t go wrong
