Girl Vs Cookie

Cookie stares at girl,girl stares back, the crumbling begins, the cooling rack warps, the metal grows teeth, the metal starts to growl, the metal starts to grow, the girl starts to shrink, the oven's door laughs, the cookie snarls, the girl falls back, the girl hits the scale, smooth and pink, ready to devour, zero lbs blinks, the girl waits, but nothing will be better than that.

The girl thinks, nothing will be better than this, the girl thinks, I can be greater than this, the girl rises, the oven shrinks, the metal rack shrinks, the cookie grows, the opposition begins, hungry teeth bite, starving stomach vacuums, throat's oil slick, revenge on the voices, to bite a cookie,to keep it down, to open the oven, to keep it open, to cool the rack, to keep it cool, to silence the scale, to keep it quiet, to nourish the body, to keep it nourished, to win the battle, of girl vs cookie.
