She ate cake

She ate cake (for Maria)  -  Pan Thistle, 2019

No I
won't even try
to find out why
she ate cake

And I
don't ever care
about the reason
why she ate cake

she ate cake
Maria ate cake
she ate cake
she ate cake
Maria ate cake

She said
she couldn't go back
her mind went blank
and she ate cake

She said
it was a big deal
and she lost her head
because she ate cake

She ate cake
Maria ate cake
because she ate cake
she ate cake
Maria ate cake

She said that simply happened and
it was not intentional
and if she had another chance...
But the worms rolled inside her
to reminder her
she was going to die
because she ate cake

she ate cake
because she ate cake
Maria ate cake
she ate cake
because she ate cake
