Although the door,
To this one particular store...
Remains open.
As competitors offer cheap treats...
Just to experience a fleeting popularity.
Hoping this will disturb by getting a re-action...
From the one who is accustomed,
To always whipping up delicious and original...
Prepared confections to inspect,
For anyone to compare and at any time...
With attempts to duplicate, rate or try to steal.
Addictions once uncovered and seeks,
Are difficult to keep from another wishing for that fix...
Smothered temporarily by cloaked coatings.
