Hate Me, Then

hate me, then

if we never stirred
or tried to mix
how can you say
we will never blend

how can a baker 
denounce a dessert
as not being cookie 
ready if she turns 
her oven off to him

how does an egg hatch
in the midst 
of rhetorical questions?

Connie, I don't know the background here, but in my opinion over-baking is the most frequent sin. Good luck to you. : )
