one slice or two

it's a box cake.
nothing special. one piece
maybe two

and then
off it goes into the trash.

you just need a taste,
to feel

the sugar,
the icing, the eggs and
flour
baked.

no occasion.
no birthday, just a cake
to pass

the day.
a slice, a glass of milk.
or a cup of hot tea.

then
tossed away.
