if I like cake?
not really
it is just the alternative
when I don’t have much choices
especially if
it has got cream
it is sweet
it is too colourful
and the gigantic cake
during any celebration
it tends to scare me
one late evening
terribly in need of something to munch
then I dug up
this Japanese cupcake
okay just give it a try
food that ends up in fridge
most of the time
will land itself in trash bin
therefore
I am giving it a second life, actually
fancifully put it in a mini plate
with spoon
with the impression of
a proper afternoon tea session
yet it doesn’t change the fact that
I don’t really like cake
it made me feel bloated for some time
guess it is due to my defensive nature
I like bread
and will stick to it
there is no way
you can convince me to like cake
having it sometimes would be fine
but if I don’t have it for a long time
it would be fine
and I don’t think I will miss it
with the only exception
the only cake I enjoy eating
is the plain old spongecake
homemade, real orange / pandan juice
all the ingredients fresh
and see how the cake booms
I don’t mind having plain white bread
for 365 days, really
but for cake
give me the best, please
and in small portion, only
just like a relationship
if there is any opportunity
I will take no risk
give me the best, please
or I would rather stay alone & aloof
munching plain bread
for the rest of this life
unless it is home-baked
do not randomly take
for hunger sake
