Sugar Cookie

Sugar Cookie

 Watching from

moonlight's bright kitchen

everything whitens.....dusted with

confectioner's kisses.....sieved from stars.

Sky's sugar sifter sprinkles my upturned cookie

round face, once soft as dough, now beginning 

to flatten and crisp in this absently regulated

oven heat.............the baker's thinking of

something else-------if one batch

burns...it's easy enough to 
whip up another.

~October 2012

55 grains of pure sugar for    the g-man

Process notes: The ellipses and dashes are just a flourish, to make the shape more cookie round, and to  theoretically look like sprinkles of sugar, hopefully without annoying the reader too much.
