A piece of that cake can turn anyone into a raving fool. Sometimes hunger can make you cranky too.
I like the pseudo limericks for the stanzas. That is a good format for this witty and imaginative poem that uses the given words well. I like your allusion to the horror movie, "Child's Play".
Congrats on placing third in the reviewing contest.

Joan, thank you very much. I'm glad you enjoyed this; it was a fun one to write. I have never actually seen "Child's Play" but the pictures I saw advertising it were terrifying enough, as were the Pixar allusions to it in one of the Toy Story films. I tried to reply to your review a while ago and the site are it! Best, Harambe

You are most kindly welcome, Harambe. Horror is not my genre.

Nicely done! I could see Cruella waiting in the wings. Good sense of humor and well-written along with the contest requirements. I wish you good luck in the contest.

Comment from Theodore McDowell
Very interesting use of the three words in the writing prompt. I love the ending--becoming a breakfast torte! Well-written and horrifying in its implications. Well-done.

Thanks very much Theodore! This was a fun one to write. I suppose to place in this contest next time I should add the words Jesus, God and Hell, as the top winners did, respectively. Oh well, guess I'll just have to write some more reviews for those entry fees : )
