sending out a signal

i send out my version

of the bat signal into the sky.

but instead of a bat

it's a chocolate chip cookie

with nuts

in it

that illuminates itself upon

the clouds.

warm freshly baked cookies

is what i want.

i send out the emergency

signal and wait.

i pace back and forth with

my cold glass of milk.

i wait patiently

for her to begin to bake

and then deliver.
