the human cookie

she'd be
covered in flour
as she made
trays of Christmas cookies
in the hot
kitchen.
she'd be sprinkled
with
sugar
and cinnamon.
all in her hair
and eyes,
on her face.
eggs
and cream were
spilled on her sleeves
and apron.
if you stuck her into
an oven
she'd be baked
and ready
for eating
in no time.
