I wake in thirst and suck my teeth why do I taste cake? and these stones that convolute the waves to froth the river, rapid dreams are merely daunted screams of these grins of sin impurity suckled at my own dry teat... so why do I taste cake? I bleed - sacred primal urgency from my lower lip, trembling, from the bite of my own teeth my feet are too far from the floor it's too damned hot for shivering and I am much too full for more: I woke in thirst of rapid dreams. I smelled the vapors sick and sweet. I recognized formeldahyde baffled by the chemistry of joy of life of misery wondering which part of me had died and why do I taste cake? |

Never eat cake before going to bed. It will do this to you everytime. Nicely done with neopolitan images! Good to read your work again Celeste....LOL! That was a long time ago wasn't it? Eric |

Oh Eric--  Celeste--laughing, it's all good, because that one is ours to share. Please tell me you have some clips on youtube--so I won't have to beg.  I have missed you much, mon amis.  Grinning--came back to add...cake before bedtime might explain why I wake up with crumbs. LMAO |

Cake. The scent reminds me of cake. I love cake, and cake loves me. Well, mostly...there was that very first cake where I learned that flour needs a thorough sifting prior to mixing. Lawd but that sucker was dense and heavy. When even dogs won't eat, something is amiss. Anyhow. CAKE! |

I just finished making vanilla cake with chocolate icing. I think, for some reason, that this is one of my favorites of yours. I enjoyed it very much, lady. Looking forward to your next. |

Blazing a path with this one Mrs. Serenity. I don't think you burned the cake with this posting, it's as sweet as ever. And I think that's why you keep tasting cake, because every word that rolled across your lips as you penned this one couldn't help but leave a sweet taste in your mouth. We'll all have cavities after reading this one. Well written. Garfield |
