Going to the bakery should always be enjoyable
There’s butter, cream, salt, chocolate, cheese, YEAST
Whatever you want
Everyone always is excited about the bakery
But since I’m a child I am terrified
Not that it doesn’t stop me
We all need to get bread and cheesecake
Today I was reminded why
When I go into the bakery I’m naked
There for all to see
A person who needs help
A person who needs to be served
A person with no autonomy
Hello
What do you want?
Which bread?
Which bread?
WHICH bread?
A croissant, too?
WHICH?
WHICH?
Tension
Eye rolls
Is that…IT?
I want to cry
I just want my bread and maybe something sweet
I just want to eat and go home
But here I am
Naked and alone
In the bakery.
