Stimulkate stimulkate bakers men
pushes dough, pushes dough
then bakers men
lets dough swing around on finger top
freely like the leaves in union;
the dough landing with a thump thump
on hard cold tray in perfect
line symmetry.
The cheerful whistle of baker
flies mid air
as the smell of bread swirls
through the air tightly around
bodies and houses and
pitter pattercake bakers men
bakes till the hew of morning
light awakens the
slumbering town
as the lazy rolling hills
mist into the forgotten
fields of tenderness.
