Regretting Cake

I'm not much of a desert eater
 but give me egg and I'm quite the beater
blend flour and vanilla, a pineapple or two
 and I'll make an upside down cake for you.
No Betty Crocker, but with a little sugar and butter
 sweet cherries and cake can set your heart  flutter.
Let it lay tempting atop a yellow fluffy cake
 and a slice you would surely take.
Another, yes go right ahead, you're welcome to it
 You love cake and I do too, just let your pants unzip,
Enjoy the sweet juicy fluffy temptation
 later you can hold on to your hesitation
Regret the indigestion and the bulge 
 but it was good now gone, gulp, I know.
