SOME CAKES Some cakes get you out of prison Some cakes get turned up side down Some cakes are how stripteases begin Some cakes are food for devils Some cakes are very very dense Some cakes are like 90% frosting Some cakes fall in Some cakes come in cursive Some cakes are deeply layered Some cakes are completely bananas Some cakes are just nuts Some cakes are shaped like objects & we call these 'concrete' Some cakes are houses & these are best avoided Some cakes hide vegetables in them Some cakes are covered in flowers Some cakes are covered in flames Some cakes are covered with inedible semi-poisonous decorations, but these are mostly for children Some cakes are ruched as coffins Some cakes look like beds Some cakes are moth filled ruins & we write novels about them Some cakes revolve in glass cases like relics Some cakes are filled with old fruit & bits of meat & hidden objects & come doused in rum & are wrapped in moldering gauzes & are stored like bricks for like literally years & are universally despised by pretty much everyone & if any cake on this list gets to be called a poem, it's this one
