Resist the Arresting Flavor of Lemons
Surveillance state and the art of cake
I believe in the power
of lemon juice and
powdered sugar
a healthy drizzle
draws the eye
even law enforcement
cannot deny
caught in the beam of
pound cake divine
🚨🍰🚨
mouth watering
mission faltering
proximity strengthens desire
for mama's lemon pound cake
🚨🍰🚨
beads of sweat
skin eject
wicked away by
blue cotton-poly-blend
🚨🍰🚨
corpulence maintained
when stomach bullies brain
on the witch hunt campaign
there's only weight
and exposure to gain
now the whole world knows
pigs are hungry for cake
