If you consume enough sugar,
the World will end,
I promise,
I promise.

I want you all
to be sweeter than pie,
because I intend for you all to be
magically delicious
for the
Things
that will come out of the Sea,
angered,
hungered,
made primarily
of eldritch horror,
and thousands of
gnashing
sweet-tooths.
But hey,
being Dessert
is somewhat better,
by a good fifteen minutes,
than what will happen to everyone else,
for surely,
surely,
they are Lunch.
