Oh, you beautiful mess.

ODE TO THE UGLY BIT
Oh, you beautiful mess.
All golden ridges
and folds going their own way.
A cliff here.
A valley there.
Every little edge
suggesting:
start here.
We spend so much time
getting the shape of things right.
And then you show up.
A high school kid dreamed you up.
A glass bowl held you
while the oven did its work.
Now look at you.
All those unruly layers,
catching the light.
Not making it easy
to decide where to begin.
I was going to write something
about inner beauty.
But honestly.
Look at the outside.

The Ugly Bit is off-menu, baked in a glass bowl, and you won't find it online.
Come early and talk to Elon at the counter. Maybe, just maybe, he can get you one.
When you know, you know.
HOT CROISSANTS, COLD BAKERY
