I Think I Just Ate a Whole Cake

My goodness, did I just eat that whole cake? Perhaps I am dreaming-pinch Nope, I’m awake Pepperidge Farm you are so wrong I didn’t realize my will power wasn’t that strong Chocolate Fudge 3-layer deliciousness Coating my taste buds with sweet flavors, so great You just pull it out the box, no bake Let it thaw, get comfy take off your bra Grab a fork, paper towel and a plate Seconds, turned to thirds I was in a cocoa zone It was way too late Quite odd, I didn’t even get a belly ache What have I done for goodness sake I literally ate an entire cake Feelings of gluttonous guilt mixed with shame Hmm, now that I look, the box is particularly small Maybe it wasn't my fault after all The manufacturer's packaging to blame That’s gonna be my story, it's what I proclaim
