Who Says You Can't
Have Your Cake & Eat It, 2




Who says you can't have your CAKE
	and EAT IT, part two?

	I sing to your icing. We whisper sweet something's.

	Sometimes, we  shout  our  icing  and FLING IT
		on  one  another. TAKE THAT, YOU STICKY BUN!

Tell me, 
	Bumble muffin-head, what SWEETNESS is this
	That ev'ry person we meet,
	Ev'ry person we greet, TOUCHES UPON
	Hour  Heart  Hand  Hour  Whole?

Ho, Who Hinks Who Wets it! 

						WELL,  Sweetheart,
	 He or SHE Who Thinks, generally has host it already.

I'm host in your icing. I'm swimming towards nectar, thinking,
	(Or maybe I'm sinking.) Sugar Honey Baby, 	Sweet Mama,
							Sweet Man,
							Sweet Manna,

Let's play house let me be host your hostess your harmony candy man
I SING and YOU SING to the ICING PLURAL SINGULAR 
		. . . please, may I lick the spoon?

would Creation ever deprive us of sweetness?
