You mix all the ingredients together And then you knead And the more you knead the Easier it becomes and The better the bread. But sometimes I miss the Hard work that is The beginning when we Would both work so hard To impress, when our Conversations were witty And sarcastic if Somewhat forced, when The dough was still Stiff beneath our fingers And so the product Felt even more satisfying Than now when the kneading Is supposedly easy So that you don't pay as much Attention to it. Although I love The taste of bread I kinda like Stealing the dough.

Kneading
You mix all the ingredients together And then you knead And the more you knead the Easier it becomes and The better the bread. But sometimes I miss the Hard work that is The beginning when we Would both work so hard To impress, when our Conversations were witty And sarcastic if Somewhat forced, when The dough was still Stiff beneath our fingers And so the product Felt even more satisfying Than now when the kneading Is supposedly easy So that you don't pay as much Attention to it. Although I love The taste of bread I kinda like Stealing the dough.
I feel somewhat ungrateful. For H.B., mostly.
