Dawn of the Bread:
Biting the Hand That Kneads, A Rye Deal
Violence, baguettes, violence:
a cycle.
Baking and battering
bread, kneading and heating.
Cyclical
abuse of
bread, needed for eating;
assaulting.
A fuse
within the flour, an ember,
results in the
monster of yeast.
In your final hour, remember
rising aloof, to make
money for years.
It was life, it was everything.
Rising, a loaf of hate.
It grows now, breathes too.
It's alive, everything
you've cooked.
The dough now leaves you
baked and battered.
You're cooked.
Violence baguettes violence.
