Some Cakes
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

THE CAKE_CODE ETHOS from one of our favorite books, The Blueblack Notes: Clones, by L_Nouk, published by Codette: [Something interesting happens when I substitute the word ‘clone’ with the word ‘poem’—the poem that runs alongside reality, without being ‘about’ it]
